Filled with great joy

The people were
abasing themselves,
succoring those
who stood in need
of their succor,
such as
imparting
their substance
to the poor
and the needy,
feeding the hungry,
and suffering
all manner of afflictions,
for Christ’s sake,
who should come
according to
the spirit of prophecy;
Looking forward
to that day,
thus retaining
a remission
of their sins;
being filled
with great joy
because of
the resurrection
of the dead,
according to
the will and power
and deliverance
of Jesus Christ
from the bands of death.
