I am so blessed to have found the Lord Church here on and will continue to strive to Do What is Right according to the will of my Heavenly Father in the name of His Son Jesus Christ.
The Mormon Tabernacle Choir sings “Do What Is Right” during the Saturday morning session of the 178th Semiannual General Conference of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints held at the Conference Center in downtown Salt Lake City, Utah in October 2008.
“Do What Is Right” Hymn #237

1. Do what is right; the day-dawn is breaking,
Hailing a future of freedom and light.
Angels above us are silent notes taking
Of evry action; then do what is right!
[Chorus]
Do what is right; let the consequence follow.
Battle for freedom in spirit and might;
And with stout hearts look ye forth till tomorrow.
God will protect you; then do what is right!
2. Do what is right; the shackles are falling.
Chains of the bondsmen no longer are bright;
Lightened by hope, soon theyll cease to be galling.
Truth goeth onward; then do what is right!
3. Do what is right; be faithful and fearless.
Onward, press onward, the goal is in sight.
Eyes that are wet now, ere long will be tearless.
Blessings await you in doing whats right!

Resty that song doesnt tell you what to do...
Is it just left up to the individual Mormon to interpret the words and do as he or she feels might be the “right” thing ???
and also its not a praise song about the LORD Jesus Christ...
BTW To do “right” in 1857 was for a Mormon male to have multiple concubines etc...
are you advocating that your Mormon friendfs should continue that practice ???
Polygamy is in the current Mormon doctrines after all...
courtesy PING to Elsie who can inform you further...
Resty that song doesnt tell you what to do...
also to do “right” in 1857 was to murder Christians...
at the orders of Brigham Young...
The Mountain Meadows Massacre comes to mind...
