God’s commandments to mankind, For believing Saints designed, And to bless the seeking mind, Came to him from Jesus Christ. 4. Precious are the years to come, While the righteous gather home For the great millennium, When they’ll rest in blessedness. Prudent in this world of woes, They will triumph o’er their foes, While the realm of Zion grows Purer for eternity. Languages: English Tune Title: AZALIA
