The resurrection morn will dawn and bring
An everlasting triumph oerthe grave
Be faithful then, ye parents Keep the faith
Be steadtast in the cause of Zion, till
Your course is inishd, and your work is done;
And.you shall soon embrace your child, orrayd
In robes Of royalty-with glory crownd,
In your own mansion OF celestial light.
There fond affection, everlasting bond
OF kindred spirits and of kindred flesh,
In strength per!ecting. will entwine around
The glorious objects OF an endless claim
