2 Nephi 1

|

A fathers heart weighed down with sorrow, fear 
For children and the hardness of their heart 
Unwilling to be humble from the start 
The Lord’s command through Nephi, would not hear

Upon this chosen land, His promise clear 
Blessings from on high He will impart 
For those that keep commandments, not depart 
From His way, and hold His teachings dear

For those who serve, a land of liberty 
And none shall come but brought by God’s own hand 
Awake, awake, a parents vision see 
And with our ancient, covenant fathers stand
From prideful shackles and unbelief be free 
Stand by your brother, whose visions have been grand
