Happily Ever After

I bought Jenny Phillips album "We believe: Songs for youth 2011" yesterday. Well..haha I won't lie, i know i'm not really considered "youth" anymore. But, these songs STILL get me through rough times, and bring me up when i'm down. The ENTIRE cd is AMAZING! But this song called "Happily Ever After" was one that stood out to me...TONS! Lyrics hit me when i'm need them most. So, i wanted to share. I guess it was inspired by Elder Uchdorf's talk "Happily Ever After". This is the best video i could find. The kids talking at the beginning is pretty cute!! But part of the song comes towards the end. :)  Also, it would't let me post it, so you'll have to click the link and go to YouTube. :)

(here are the lyrics)

Jenny Philips - "Happily Ever After" Lyrics


Once upon a time
A child was born into this life
Heaven could be seen in her eyes
There was no doubt she was divine
And if you are still you will feel the truth
That the princess in this wondrous story is you

[Chorus:]
It’s your time
It’s your destiny to shine
So arise
Be true to the royal
That’s inside of you
Don’t settle for the story that
The world would have you write
You were born to reach eternal life
Let faith fill every chapter
Let the Savior lead you to
Happily ever after


Sometimes in your life
The world will cast a spell
And try to make your conscience fall asleep
And forget the woman God would have you be
But if you are still you will understand
The noble role you play in his plan

[Bridge:]
When the forests fills with darkness
And wolves seek your soul
Just know
You are simply in the place between
Your once upon a time and your triumph in the end
