MISSION OF THE TWELVE
BY
How fleet the precious moments roll
How soon the harvest will be o'er
The watchmen seek their final rest
And lift a warning voice no more
Another year has rolld away
And took its thousands to the tomb
Its sorrows and its Joys are fled
To hasten on the gen'ral doom
And eighteen hundred thirty five
Is rolling swiftly on the wing
And soon the the leaves and tae^n^drils thrives
A token of returning spring
The fulness of the gospel shines
With glorious and resplendent rays
The earth and heavens show forth their signs
As tokens of the latter days
Ye chosen twelve to you are given
The keys of this last ministry
To every nation under heaven
From land to land from sea to sea
First to the gentiles sounds the news
Throughout Columbia's happy land
And then before it reach the Jews
Prepare on shores to stand
