Hymn 80
11 11 11 11
1. Dear brothers and sisters, I give you my hand,
To meet you in Zion, for it's God's command;
A divine revelation from heaven was sent,
That this land's prepared for the Latter-Day saint.

2. Then why do we tarry, why so long delay,
If Jesus has called us, O haste flee away,
Make all things now ready, that we may go hence,
To the land that's prepared for the Latter-Day saint.

3. Then we can praise God in one glorious band,
And sing hallelujah, when on Zion we stand;
Then let us live humble, that we may possess
The land that's prepared for the Latter-Day Saint.
