On April 6 1830

On April 6, 1830
The Lord's church was organized
In an intimate gathering
It was officially recognized

The Holy Ghost, that day, out poured
To a very great degree
For as they rejoiced and praised the Lord
Some were given the gift of prophecy

Unnoticed by the world
The events of this day went by
But certainly, the heavens saw and heard
Unto rejoicing as God was glorified

These are glorious times foreseen in vision
When the church would be restored with truth
Millions have entered the waters of baptism
After receiving a witness of the spirit for proof


A Great Work of God
