4.0 out of 5 stars Great for FHE, July 10, 2007

This review is from: My Turn on Earth (Audio CD)

Catchy songs from a 70's play to help learn about the Plan through the eyes of a group of children, with the main focus on a girl named Barbara. Some of the songs get a bit cheezy but most of the time are simple, beautiful ways to express the purpose of life. More upbeat than Primary songs and more modern language than the Standard Works. It would be great if it came out on DVD, but until then the soundtrack is great to listen to as a family while doing activities together.

About the Genesis of Earth and Man
2. Heaven
"Heaven is everything that I'd like it to be"

4. Shout for Joy

5. My Turn on Earth

I enjoyed these songs when I was a child, and when something jogged my memory, I was thrilled to find the CD was available for purchase. My children also enjoy the songs. I love how beautifully the songs teach about principles of repentance, pre-mortal life, opposition, choice and agency, and more.

I love musicals and this one is a favorite of mine, because the lyrics have so many wonderful messages about our amazing life journey we experience here on earth. Great for children, the whole family.
