The Only True God and Jesus Christ Whom He Hath Sent

Here, in the premillennial inning
To a boy whose life was just beginning
Came the answer that's been sought out by man
Who is the incomprehensible God?
To Him, can I pray and be heard? Yes, I can
As He guide us to Him through an iron rod

Joseph Smith prayed to know which church is true
He, confused and not knowing what to do
At first he was claimed by purgatory
Then in the grove a flood of light soon shown
And with embodied and majestic glory-
The Father and the Son stood risen and aglow

And why did Jesus Christ also appear?
He to the left of the Father so dear
Sinless, He'd redeemed us and set up justice
He, with the Father came to earth in the flesh
To end confusion with their living witness-
We're led by divine beings whose purposes mesh.
