An Angel Came to Joseph Smith
1. An angel came to Joseph Smith,And from the ground he tookA sacred record hidden thereA precious, holy book.
2. It tells of people who came here,Led by Jehovah’s hand;It tells of nations who once livedUpon this lovely land.
3. It tells about the Lamanites,About the Nephites, too;It tells about the JareditesAnd prophets false and true.
4. Some day I’ll read the sacred book,And then I’ll understandWhy Heav’nly Father watches allUpon this lovely land.
