Elder Burnell's ode to Kaya and McKenna

My little brother sent me this poem; he is on his mission in California. I am totally impressed I didn't know he wrote poems but I thought this was cute.

Two beautiful girls were born today

For which, I shouted "hooray!"
We are so glad to have you here
There is no need to fear
Though the times will get hard
You always have the right card
God and Jesus are on our side
We have no reason to hide
So hold tight to the Iron Rod
Which is the word of God
To know his truth we kneel to pray
And with our answer stay
Close to the prophet and we will stand
As God's servants and make one strong band
Part of the chosen generation you are
Brightly beaming like a shining star
Your good deeds and acts will show
Because you are living what you know
Make us proud and stand for truth
And God will bless you in your youth
Don't forget to share this truth with His children
Because God's kingdom we always need to be buildin'
Remember families are what bring such joy
So find yourself a worthy boy
The temple will be your goal
So live worthy to pay our tole
On this earth we may separate
But in heaven we will be in a perfect state
Patiently we will all wait
Till the whole family is at the gate
So don't for get we always love you
And will be watchin' all you do
