To be the son of God

"And as many as have received me, to them have I given to become the sons of God"
3 Nephi 9:17

What greater gift is given than to be the son of God?
What blessing could be sweeter than our feet in peace be shod?
What can the world then offer that is half so wondrous great,
as sanguine expectation that we leave this fallen state?
Embrace the Savior, O my soul, and love him, O my heart,
that from his love and kindness I may never live apart!
