23 Learn of me, and listen to my words; walk in the meekness of my Spirit, and you shall have peace in me.
Sonnet 795 D&C 19:23
And here's that threesome counsel yet again
Three things to do to earn a promise true
It's learn, and listen, walk in meekness, then
The peace of God will come, with Him, to you.
As usual these three duties are not new
They represent a very common theme
As “study”, “pray” and “work”, is what we do
To keep our daily progress on the beam.
Don't let a day go by without a touch
Of learning of the word in holy writ
And no one ever listened overmuch
So praying always is a benefit.
And, thirdly, work should be your daily walk
No meekness ever grew just out of talk.
