Come, Thou Glorious Day of Promise

When the British General with his army entered the City of Jerusalem I felt that the time of the Gentiles was very close to being fulfilled. At my request the choir will sing a song written by a converted Jew, the father of our faithful Latter-day Saint sister, Sister Rebecca Neibaur Nibley — "Come thou glorious day of promise!" ¶

By special request the choir sang, "Come, thou glorious day of promise," by Neibaur. ¶

Come, thou glorious day of promise, ¶

Come and spread thy cheerful ray, When the scattered sheep of Israel ¶

Shall no longer go astray; When hosannas, ¶

With united voice they'll cry. ¶

Lord, how long wilt Thou be angry; ¶

Shall Thy wrath forever burn? Rise,, redeem Thine ancient people, ¶

Their transgressions from them turn. King of Israel, ¶

Come and set Thy people free. ¶

O, that soon Thou wouldst to Jacob, ¶

Thy enlivening Spirit send! Of their unbelief and mis'ry ¶

Make, O Lord, a speedy end. Lord, Messiah! ¶

Prince of Peace o'er Israel reign. ¶

Announcement was made that Elder Ernest W. Wood, and President Lewis W. Shurtliff, of Weber stake, were ill, and desired to be remembered by the congregation of Saints, and they were prayed for by President Daniel Heiner, who offered the closing prayer. ¶

The meeting was adjourned until 2 o'clock p. m. ¶
