Latter Days by James O'Brien

When thinking of the world today,
And all that’s come to be,
With floods and storms and hurricanes,
Tsunamis from the sea.

Perhaps mankind should read again,
The prophecies of old,
And then give thought to how they knew,
These things that now unfold.

Suppose these are the latter days;
Suppose the Gospel’s true;
And just suppose the scriptures tell
The things we need to do.

I hope it’s not too late to learn
How God would have me live,
And hopefully I’ll do what’s right
And better learn to give.

With all the “signs” I recognize,
I think it’s time to choose,
A way of life that saves my soul,
For that, I’d hate to lose.
