The Angel Message

1 I have found the glorious gospel that was taught in former years,
With its gifts and blessings all so full and free;
And my soul is thrilled with gladness, and banished are my fears,
Since the precious angel message came to me.

Refrain:
Then praise the Lord, O my soul!
Abundant mercy, oh, how free!
In joyful song my spirit doth accord,
Since the precious angel message came to me.

2 I wandered long in darkness, yet sought the narrow way,
And my life was like the surging of the sea;
But now I am rejoicing in this the latter day,
Since the precious angel message came to me. [Refrain]

3 My once blind eyes are open, my sins are washed away,
And the kingdom I can very plainly see;
No more do fears and doubtings my trusting soul dismay,
Since the precious angel message came to me. [Refrain]

4 Now for celestial glory in the presence of the Lord,
I will work and watch and humbly bow the knee;
No longer faith but knowledge in true and sweet accord
Has the precious angel message brought to me. [Refrain]
