That is a beautiful song. I didn’t realize that President Faust had written the lyrics. Powerful words to live by.

I spent a while trying to find the lyrics online last night, but I was unsuccessful. It would be cool if someone could find them and post them.

Your wish is my command. :) It was published in the Ensign in Dec, 2006. My favorite hymn is "I Believe in Christ". This song is a close second.

This is the Christ

They heard His voice, a voice so mild.
It pierced them through and made their souls to quake.
They saw Him come, a man in white,
The Savior, who had suffered for their sake.
They felt the wounds in hands and side,
And each could testify:

Chorus:
This is the Christ.
This is the Christ, the holy Son of God,
Our Savior, Lord, Redeemer of mankind.
This is the Christ, the Healer of our souls,
Who ransomed us with love divine.

I read His words, the words He prayed
While bearing sorrow in Gethsemane.
I feel His love, the price He paid.
How many drops of blood were spilled for me?
With Saints of old in joyful cry
I too can testify:

Chorus:
This is the Christ.
This is the Christ, the holy Son of God,
Our Savior, Lord, Redeemer of mankind.
This is the Christ, the Healer of our souls,
Who ransomed us with love divine.
