I Am A Child Of God Studies Doctrine Mormon
"I Am a Child of God"
Joseph Smith taught that knowing God is essential to having strong faith, and we can converse with the Almighty like we would with other people. Naomi Randall took that teaching to heart and eventually wrote this simple yet powerful hymn at the direction of the general Primary board with the help of composer Mildred T. Pettit in 1957. The hymn was received with great acclaim and success, and it was aptly described as a song that summarized 'the whole gospel plan in a few words." Ref. Source 7
