Another poem from the Deseret 2nd Primer (Lesson 20). Probably some of you will recognize it as similar to a hymn from the current L.D.S. Children's Hymnbook. Remember, this is in the original Deseret dialect. Latin script follows:

Lesson Twenty—Juvenile Hymn\\

I’ll serve the Lord while I am young\\
and in my early days\\
Devote the music of my tongue\\
to sing his sacred praise.\\

I’ll praise His name that He has given\\
to me a home and birth\\
Among the most beloved of heaven\\
that dwell upon the earth.\\

My parents dear, O Lord, preserve\\
that they may guide my youth,\\
That my young feet may never swerve\\
from goodness and from truth,\\

And like the faithful ones of old\\
who now behold Thy face.\\
May I abide in virtue’s mold\\
and fill a holy place.\\

While youth and beauty sweetly twine\\
their garlands round my head,\\
I’ll seek at wisdom’s sacred shrine\\
the gems that never fade.\\

Long may I sing Thy praises here\\
among thy saints below,\\
And in the world above appear\\
with them in glory too.
