SSATBB (opt. SATB) Choir & Piano
Text by Parley P Pratt
Music by Alexander Schreiner,
Arranged by M Ryan Taylor

This arrangement for intermediate choirs may be simplified by leaving out the middle note in the 3-part divisi for both or either the men’s or women’s sections. Schreiner’s melody is treated with an interesting harmonic/contrapuntal background that adds an additional dimension to the piece.

The Text:

Truth eternal, truth divine,
In thine ancient fulness shine!
Burst the fetters of the mind
From the millions of mankind!

Truth again restored to earth,
Opened with a prophet’s birth.
Priests of heaven’s royal line
Bear the keys of truth divine!

Truth shall triumph as the light
Chases far the misty night.
Endless ages own its sway,
Clad in everlasting day.
