If I were you what would I do?

If I were you, what would I do?
I’d enjoy every day of my stay
On this campus of Brigham Young U.
If I were you, what would I do?
I’d drink of the nectar of knowledge,
A great, full draft of its richest brew.
If I were you, what would I do?
I’d walk humbly with God and my Savior, too.
If I were you, what would I do?
I’d fall in love with a girl named Sue,
Or a boy named Lou,
And plan for the day we’d be married,
We two.
If I were you, what would I do?
I’d live with my love with integrity true–
And welcome our children, many or few.
If I were you, what would I do?
If courtship and marriage didn’t come through?
I’d fret, but I’d say, “There’s no time to stew.
Get busy. Find something important to do.
By now I’d just say, “Good-bye and adieu,”
With a prayer in my heart for each one of you.
-GORDON B. HINCKLEY
