From the preface of the LDS Hymnal:

Hymns can greatly benefit us as individuals. Hymns can lift our spirits, give us courage, and move us to righteous action. They can fill our souls with heavenly thoughts and bring us a spirit of peace… We encourage you to memorize your favorite hymns… Know that the song of the righteous is a prayer unto our Father in Heaven, “and it shall be answered with a blessing upon [your] heads.” — The First Presidency

Here’s what to do:

1. Print out the lyrics
2. Put them inside a sandwich baggie (with the seal/opening on the bottom)
3. Get it wet
4. Stick it to the shower wall

That way you can start the day with a song and prayer. And if you sing loud enough, the whole house will enjoy it. : )

(This is a cross-post of an article I wrote for MormonLifeHacker.com.)

(On a personal note, I just finished “In Remembrance of Thy Suffering” and now I’m starting “The Son of God,” which is a hymn the adventurers sing in the movie The Man Who Would Be King.)

And here’s how the public is responding, ha ha. : )

Each year BYU hosts the Mayhew Contest for their students. I think I entered every category except screenplay. I just got news that my “Plan of Happiness” piece was accepted under the visual arts category. So it’s on display on the 4th floor of the HFAC for the next two weeks… Not bad for an English major.

I recently had lunch with a friend, and we talked about the good old days at BYU-Idaho. It really is a beautiful place.

Hope you enjoy the free print. (Let me know how printing and framing goes.)

Man, it was FREEZING in Rexburg. I was up there a few weeks ago for my bro’s graduation. It’s a beautiful campus. I was blown away with the new I-Center and the way they’ve remodeled the Manwaring Center—it’s like a giant mall. And I love the skywalks.

BYU-Idaho will always be my alma mater.

The 5×7 print of any LDS temple on this site is free to download. Yep, free.

Printing the file at Costco (after downloading for free) will cost you about 50¢.

The frame costs $2.00 at IKEA. And it’s a nice frame. (I gave this gift to my sister for Christmas.)

Grand total: $2.50

At the bookstore, this would cost over $10. At least. Probably over $20.

If you think this site is worthwhile, please share it with your friends on Facebook (or, heck, just mention it to them in a real-life conversation). And thanks.

P.S. If you’ve printed one of my photos, I’d love to hear about it in the comments.

My little sister is currently spending a semester at the BYU Jerusalem center. This is a cool quote about Jerusalem that I found and typographized for her (for Christmas).

If you have any love for Jerusalem, feel free to download and frame one for yourself : )
