Seek the Lord Early History

This information comes from Stories from The Children’s Songbook by Sister Pat Graham (more information on that book HERE).

Joanne Bushman Doxey and her husband served as mission presidents in Barcelona, Spain. “While there, she said, “I was impressed as I read the scriptures. . . that if children learned early to seek the Lord, they would be guided and protected throughout their lives.”75Just before the Doxeys completed their mission, President Dwan Young contacted Joanne. She wanted someone who could understand the needs of children in the mission field. One of the first assignments given to Sister Doxey was to help write the 1984 Children’s Sacrament Meeting Presentation. The scripture she had been impressed with prompted this song.

Author’sNote: I always liked to sit by Joanne at board meetings. I had a new baby as well as teenagers, and I eagerly soaked up her comments about parenting and teaching. She always made me feel that it was possible to be a successful mother and serve in the Church.

Joanne said, “The most important of all activities and honors, the most time-consuming and most rewarding, has been the rearing of a righteous fanaily.”76She is the mother of eight children who enjoy singing together and collecting and playing musical instruments. Sister Doxey served as counselor to General Relief Society President Barbara Winder; chairman of Church Hostessing; and with her husband as counselor in the Salt Lake Temple presidency, and president of the Spain Madrid Temple.
