D&C 76:40-41 #2

Sonnet 808 D&C 76:40-41 #2

The earth will be renewed as we believe
And then become a shining paradise
A place where it and people can receive
A glory paid for with an awful price.

That glory, wholly sanctified and sure
All clean and free of sin and any stain
Transparent as a sea of glass and pure
Where future, past and present meld and reign.

And nothing that's impure abides the light
The slightest flaws are burned away by grace
White hot, to finish anything not right
To everything that is, a  warm embrace.

Him crucified and bearing every sin
Invites us to repent and enter in.
