"How Much Needed"



Doctrine and Covenants 4:1 Now behold, a marvelous work is about to come forth among the children of men.

 2 Therefore, O ye that embark in the service of God, see that ye serve him with all your heart, might, mind and strength, that ye may stand blameless before God at the last day.

 3 Therefore, if ye have desires to serve God ye are called to the work;

 4 For behold the field is white already to harvest; and lo, he that thrusteth in his sickle with his might, the same layeth up in store that he perisheth not, but bringeth salvation to his soul;

 5 And faith, hope, charity and love, with an eye single to the glory of God, qualify him for the work.

 6 Remember faith, virtue, knowledge, temperance, patience, brotherly kindness, godliness, charity, humility, diligence.

 Ask, and ye shall receive; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. Amen.

 

“How Much Needed”

12/25/13

 

Much awaited and in prophecy

from the beginnings of time

known to all who’d but listen

able to hear, feel and thus see

both Prophets from the beginning

till those of these the Latter-days

calling all who can see, hear and feel

for this great work has begun again

which Christians celebrate today

again Restored to this our earth

during our mortal probation

how much needed a Prophet

apart from the worldliness of men

(fear not of women too) known

joy and thanksgiving angels sing

then as they do now for all

thus the invitation to come close

hear, see, feel warmth within

given from the Father and Son!
