The Priesthood

By Helen K. Orgill, 1976


The Lord has now revealed,
The Priesthood of His Son,
More glory truth and power
Than known since time has run.

For mysteries to hold,
The Kingdom's keys abide,
The sacred record now,
For man his constant guide.

With prayer, True wisdom gain,
A righteous road imbue,
Then effort, vision, faith,
Will mark the holder true.

A light unto the world,
In strength a savior too,
With kindliness and love,
The Father's work to do.

To reach the Godhead goal,
Man must the priesthood hold,
And it to magnify,
For reasons now untold.

Man came to earth from God,
So, on a glorious day,
He will return again,
If God's word he'll obey.
