Praise to the Man

PRAISE TO THE MAN WHO COMMUNED WITH JEHOVAH

JESUS ANOINTED THAT PROPHET AND SEER

BLESSED TO OPEN THE LAST DISPENSATION

KINGS SHALL EXTOL HIM AND NATIONS REVERE

HAIL TO THE PROPHET, ASCENDED TO HEAVEN

TRAITORS AND TYRANTS NOW FIGHT HIM IN VAIN

MINGLING WITH GODS HE CAN PLAN FOR HIS BRETHREN

DEATH CANNOT CONQUER THE HERO AGAIN!

So that's what I've been doing for the last, oh, three hours. I browsed through some flip charts online for this song and just felt generally disappointed by them. Besides, I think this will be the last song I teach this primary. So I decided to make it a sort of parting gift to them, something they can probably remember me by. I know my drawings are definitely on the artsy side, but I want this song to have an impact. It's a great song; I personally have felt a deepening gratitude for the prophet Joseph Smith. I know he wasn't a perfect man, but no one is. And he lived an exemplary life, sacrificing all! I am grateful that he fulfilled his mission on earth so that we can have the fullness of the gospel. We all owe so much to him, the least we can offer is our thanks.
