He translated the Word for all to read
So the plowboy would know more than the priest
And for this noble, enlightening deed
Tyndale suffered death as one who is least.
With the truths of the Bible in his hand
Martin Luther walked to Wittenberg’s door;
Posting his thesis, he took a brave stand
Advancing the high cause of truth once more.
Joseph Smith was Tyndale’s plowboy foretold,
God’s purpose in Luther’s Reformation;
Seeing God, he had the heart to be bold
Opening the final dispensation.
Through him, Jesus’ gospel restored to earth
Ending Amos’ presaged spiritual dearth.
