Hymn 228. (L. M.)

1 To Kolob now my thoughts repair,

Where God, my Father, reigns above:

My heav'nly Mother, too, is there,

And many kindred whom I love.

2 My Father sent me here below,

A tabernacle to obtain,

That I might good and evil know,

And endless lives and glory gain.

3. Oh, let me, then, return again!

To see my parents, whom I love,

And with my brethren live and reign,

In worlds where once I lived above.
