Daniel Beck - Joseph Smith's First Prayer lyrics

Artist: Daniel Beck

album: Abide With Me


Oh, how lovely was the morning!
Radiant beamed the sunabove.
Bees were humming, sweet birds singing,
Music ringing thru the grove,
When withing the shady woodland
Joseph sought the God of love,
When within the shady woodland
Joseph sought the god of love.
Humbly kneeling, sweet appealing-
'Was the boy's first uttered prayer-
When the pow'rs of sin assailing
Filled his sould with deep despair;
But undaunted, still he trusted
In his Heav'nly Father's care;
But undaunted, still he trusted
In his Heav'nly Father's care.
Suddenly a light descended,
Brighter far than noonday sun,
And a shining, glorious pillar
O'er him fell, around him shone,
While appeared two heav'nly beings,
God the Father and the Son,
While appeared two heav'nly beings,
God the Father and the Son.
"Joseph, this is my Beloved;
Hear him!" Oh, how sweet the word!
Joseph's humble prayer was answered,
And he listened to the Lord.
Oh, what rapture filled hi bosom,
For he saw the living God;
Oh, what rapture filled his bosom,
For he saw the living God.
