Every Member a Missionary is taken from a collection of songs called The Prophets Songbook which contains 17 songs of our modern-day prophets and themes from their presidency. This song was written to highlight David O. Mckay who extended the challenge to members of the church saying, "Every member a missionary."


Lyrics: "Every member a missionary."
That's what the prophet prayed.
"Every member a missionary"
I know I can obey.
A city set upon a hill,
It never can be hid.
The Savior's light shines forth to all
"Come unto me." He bids.
"Every member a missionary."
I'll bear the Savior's name.
"Every member a missionary."
His gospel I'll proclaim.
The world is hungry for the truth;
His words will feed our soul.
They prove His love, they give us hope.
They comfort and console.
"Every member a missionary."
That's what I want to do.
"Every member a missionary."
I know the gospel's true.
