English (Original Language)
1. If someone should promise you richesOf wisdom, knowledge and healthAnd treasures, yes hidden treasuresFar greater than worldly wealthIf he promised you strength and protectionIn this world from evil and sinWould you follow His directionto obtain these blessings from him?
2. Our Father in Heaven has promisedSound wisdom, knowledge and healthIf obedient to his word of wisdomThese treasures will be your wealthhe has promised you strength and protectionAnd his promises he will fulfillYou shall run and not be wearyIf you follow and do his will.
