The Lesson that I Love Best

View/print sheet music:     Duet for YW and Leader

    Lyrics:

    Young Woman:
    Teach me the things that a girl needs to know, the lessons I can't learn alone
    For someday I know that a woman must reap the harvest my childhood has sown
    Show me the harvest I'm planting, and somehow, along with the rest,
    I'll be learning to love you while you learn to love me
    That's the lesson that I love best

    Leader:
    Help me remember the faith of a child, and teach me again of my youth
    Show me the way I may speak to your heart and lead you to love of the truth
    I'll learn from your innocent wisdom, and somehow, along with the rest,
    I'll be learning to love you while you learn to love me
    That's the lesson that I love best

    YW:
    I may not remember a thing you say
    But I'll treasure the things you are
    I may not grow wise in the ways of the world
    But the lessons I learn will be greater by far

    Both:
    Gladly I'll teach you, and gladly I'll hear whatever your heart has to tell
    Learning the lessons I need most to know, and loving the learning so well
    Gratefully growing together, and somehow, along with the rest
    I'll be learning to love you while you learn to love me
    (YW) That's the lesson that I love best
    (Both) The lesson that I love best
