No one can conceive
His groan, as He knelt
And spoke of His grief
For Israel that He felt
He spoke on our behalf
Then bade us to arise
With joy for the faith we have
He wept before our eyes
As our children were before Him
He prayed for each, one by one
Aloud to our Father in Heaven
And wept again, such the tenderness of the Son
Of more joy, one could not suppose
But then angels surrounded us from Heaven
Encircling our children, fire enclosed
While from them, heaven's blessings were given
3 Nephi 17

14 And it came to pass that when they had knelt upon the ground, Jesus groaned within himself, and said: Father, I am atroubledbecause of the wickedness of the people of the house of Israel.
15 And when he had said these words, he himself also aknelt upon the earth; and behold he bprayed unto the Father, and the things which he prayed cannot be written, and the multitude did bear record who heard him.
