If you could hie to Kolob

 

Lyrics

  1. 1

    Lyrics

    1. 1. If you could hie to Kolob

      In the twinkling of an eye,

      And then continue onward

      With that same speed to fly,

      Do you think that you could ever,

      Through all eternity,

      Find out the generation

      Where Gods began to be?

    2. 2. Or see the grand beginning,

      Where space did not extend?

      Or view the last creation,

      Where Gods and matter end?

      Methinks the Spirit whispers,

      “No man has found ‘pure space,’

      Nor seen the outside curtains,

      Where nothing has a place.”

    3. 3. The works of God continue,

      And worlds and lives abound;

      Improvement and progression

      Have one eternal round.

      There is no end to matter;

      There is no end to space;

      There is no end to spirit;

      There is no end to race.

    4. 4. There is no end to virtue;

      There is no end to might;

      There is no end to wisdom;

      There is no end to light.

      There is no end to union;

      There is no end to youth;

      There is no end to priesthood;

      There is no end to truth.

    5. 5. There is no end to glory;

      There is no end to love;

      There is no end to being;

      There is no death above.

      There is no end to glory;

      There is no end to love;

      There is no end to being;

      There is no death above.

    In the twinkling of an eye,

    And then continue onward

    With that same speed to fly,

    Do you think that you could ever,

    Through all eternity,

    Find out the generation

    Where Gods began to be?

  2. 2. Or see the grand beginning,

    Where space did not extend?

    Or view the last creation,

    Where Gods and matter end?

    Methinks the Spirit whispers,

    “No man has found ‘pure space,’

    Nor seen the outside curtains,

    Where nothing has a place.”

  3. 3. The works of God continue,

    And worlds and lives abound;

    Improvement and progression

    Have one eternal round.

    There is no end to matter;

    There is no end to space;

    There is no end to spirit;

    There is no end to race.

  4. 4. There is no end to virtue;

    There is no end to might;

    There is no end to wisdom;

    There is no end to light.

    There is no end to union;

    There is no end to youth;

    There is no end to priesthood;

    There is no end to truth.

  5. 5. There is no end to glory;

    There is no end to love;

    There is no end to being;

    There is no death above.

    There is no end to glory;

    There is no end to love;

    There is no end to being;

    There is no death above.

3 Nephi 17

 CHAPTER 17

Jesus directs the people to ponder His words and pray for understanding—He heals their sick—He prays for the people, using language that cannot be written—Angels minister to and fire encircles their little ones. About A.D. 34.

Behold, now it came to pass that when Jesus had spoken these words he looked round about again on the multitude, and he said unto them: Behold, my atime is at hand.

aperceive that ye are weak, that ye cannot bunderstand all my words which I am commanded of the Father to speak unto you at this time.

Therefore, go ye unto your homes, and aponder upon the things which I have said, and ask of the Father, in my name, that ye may understand, and bprepare your minds for the cmorrow, and I come unto you again.

But now I ago unto the Father, and also to bshow myself unto the lost tribes of Israel, for they are not clost unto the Father, for he knoweth whither he hath taken them.

And it came to pass that when Jesus had thus spoken, he cast his eyes round about again on the multitude, and beheld they were ain tears, and did look steadfastly upon him as if they would ask him to tarry a little longer with them.

And he said unto them: Behold, my bowels are filled with acompassion towards you.

Have ye any that are asick among you? Bring them hither. Have ye any that are lame, or blind, or halt, or maimed, or bleprous, or that are withered, or that are deaf, or that are afflicted in any manner? Bring them hither and I will cheal them, for I have compassion upon you; my bowels are filled with mercy.

For I perceive that ye desire that I should show unto you what I have done unto your brethren at Jerusalem, for I see that your afaith is bsufficient that I should heal you.

And it came to pass that when he had thus spoken, all the multitude, with one accord, did go forth with their sick and their afflicted, and their lame, and with their ablind, and with their dumb, and with all them that were afflicted in any manner; and he did heal them every one as they were brought forth unto him.

10 And they did all, both they who had been healed and they who were whole, bow down at his feet, and did worship him; and as many as could come for the multitude did akiss his feet, insomuch that they did bathe his feet with their tears.

11 And it came to pass that he commanded that their alittle children should be brought.

12 So they brought their little children and set them down upon the ground round about him, and Jesus stood in the midst; and the multitude gave way till they had all been brought unto him.

13 And it came to pass that when they had all been brought, and Jesus stood in the midst, he commanded the multitude that they should akneel down upon the ground.

14 And it came to pass that when they had knelt upon the ground, Jesus groaned within himself, and said: Father, I am atroubled because of the wickedness of the people of the house of Israel.

15 And when he had said these words, he himself also aknelt upon the earth; and behold he bprayed unto the Father, and the things which he prayed cannot be written, and the multitude did bear record who heard him.

16 And after this manner do they bear record: The aeye hath never seen, neither hath the ear heard, before, so great and marvelous things as we saw and heard Jesus speak unto the Father;

17 And no atongue can speak, neither can there be written by any man, neither can the hearts of men conceive so great and marvelous things as we both saw and heard Jesus speak; and no one can conceive of the joy which filled our souls at the time we heard him pray for us unto the Father.

18 And it came to pass that when Jesus had made an end of praying unto the Father, he arose; but so great was the ajoy of the multitude that they were overcome.

19 And it came to pass that Jesus spake unto them, and bade them arise.

20 And they arose from the earth, and he said unto them: Blessed are ye because of your faith. And anow behold, my joy is full.

21 And when he had said these words, he awept, and the multitude bare record of it, and he took their little children, one by one, and bblessed them, and prayed unto the Father for them.

22 And when he had done this he wept again;

23 And he spake unto the multitude, and said unto them: Behold your little ones.

24 And as they looked to behold they cast their eyes towards heaven, and they saw the heavens open, and they saw angels descending out of heaven as it were in the midst of fire; and they came down and aencircled those little ones about, and they were encircled about with fire; and the angels did minister unto them.

25 And the multitude did see and ahear and bear record; and they know that their record is true for they all of them did see and hear, every man for himself; and they were in number about two thousand and five hundred souls; and they did consist of men, women, and children.

Why is truth not allowed to exist anymore?

 Why is truth not allowed to exist anymore? Why is basic reality banned from our lives? Nobody believes in basic logic anymore! Truth judges...
