Another of Eric's Poems

When we left the preexistence; our Heavenly Father’s home,

I have no doubt he told us we’d never be alone.

He told us it would be quite hard, tempting, and seem unfair

But he promised to me and each of us there’d be nothing we couldn’t bear.

I’m sure he stressed with every word to call him every day,

To keep our hearts, minds and spirits in a spotless way.

I wonder if others left for seconds and returned to him again

They went through trials and sorrow, and returned free of sin

I’m so thankful he gave to each of us a Comforter; the Hold Ghost

To help us pass this mortal dwelling and reside with the Heavenly Hosts.
