“Today A Prophet Born”

 

“Today A Prophet Born”

12/23/12

 

Today a Prophet born for the world

rejected and ultimately murdered

vilified by the media and clergy

accused even today as a fraud

while his teaching unchanged

remain as true today as then

instead of being destroyed

the Church Restored growing

throughout the world known

in almost every nation grown

America’s religion today called

words of Tolstoy often recalled

Joseph Smith, Jr. born today

December 23, 1806 to stay

Called by the Father and Son

never to deny this sacred trust

known far and wide by most

only understood by the few

never wavering from his call

beaten, persecuted, denied

yet all he said and built then

today growing still in truth

this day was a Prophet born

into this world to call and warn!
