JOSEPH SMITH


Humble boy, turned humble man,

Seeking for truth, Restoration began.

Always staying true, Hated by his peers,

He trusted God and overcame all his fears.

Bringing forth a special book,

Persecution he meekly took.


Teaching truths our prophet and guide,

For his testimony he willingly died.

We speak of him with admiration.

We sing with love and exultation.


He was an example of the Anointed One,

Our Father’s Only Begotten Son.

Both came to fulfill the Father’s plan,

And bring God’s word to every man.


We too must spread their words abroad,

And help show others the way to God.
