the mormon tabernacle choir - praise to the man lyrics

Loading...

1. 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

[chorus]
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

2. praise to his mem’ry, he died as a martyr;
honored and blest be his ever great name!
long shall his blood, which was shed by -ss-ssins
plead unto heav’n while the earth lauds his fame

3. great is his glory and endless his priesthood
ever and ever the keys he will hold
faithful and true, he will enter his kingdom
crowned in the midst of the prophets of old

4. sacrifice brings forth the blessings of heaven;
earth must atone for the blood of that man
wake up the world for the conflict of justice
millions shall know “brother joseph” again

text: william w. phelps, 1792–1872

music: scottish folk song
