I have revealed the temples Brother Brigham, Brother Young The temple garments, and secrets Brother Young I have apostatized and doubted Brother Brigham, Young And my testimony falsely Brother Young
And I loved a woman Brother Brigham, Brother Young A woman in adultery Brother I have also wed a negress Brother Brigham, Brother My fifth wife has color Brigham Young
I now see you're a prophet Brother Brigham, Brother Young A living, prophet Brother Young And now I believe the revelations Brother Brigham, Young I now believe your revelations, one
Even the ones beyond all Brother Brigham, Brother Young Even the ones beyond all reason Young For you're the Lord's own earthly prophet Brigham, Brother Young And hes simply testing in our o Brigham Young
My only hope for exaltation Brother Brigham, Young My only chance for exaltation Brother Is to send me o'er the rim of the basin Brother Brigham, Brother The rim of the Salt Lake Basin Young
For water save me Brother Brigham, Brother Young Baptismal cannot save me Brigham Young My sins are too deep a dye o Brother Brigham, Brother Young My sins are just too deep a stain o Brother
So send Avenging Angels Brigham, Brother Young Won't you send Destroying Danites Brother To spill my blood upon the earth o Brother Brigham, Brother I beg you my blood o Brother Young
