Lyrics from A Collection of Sacred Hymns for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, 1845

Hymn 86
L.M.
1. The gospel light, in days of old,
Brought life and immortality,
To all who would this light behold,
And strive by faith the truth to see.

2. This gospel is the plan, whereby
The God of heaven would save man;
And all who will this system try,
Can come into the heavenly plan.

3. Yes! and the way in which they come,
Is plainly by the Apostle said,
To be believed, repent, and then
Be baptized as our Savior did.

4. By going down into the flood,
And being buried in the stream,
By a person that's called of God,
The rite to minister to them.
