2 Nephi 31:20 -- “Wherefore, if ye shall press forward, feasting upon the word of Christ, and endure to the end, behold, thus saith the Father: Ye shall have eternal life.”
And after I am laid to rest, and after worms have chewed
Upon my idle carcass, will I then behold the rood
Upon which Savior, King, and Christ bore all for me alone?
O, how to understand this truth – so stark and yet keystone!
Eternal life, abiding joy, and love that has no term;
I am heir to all of it if I remain but firm.
So weak am I, so frail my faith – O God, your mercy spread
Over me that I may wake to Thee when I am dead!
