that the Lord God would preserve a record of my people, the Nephites;

even if it so be by the power of his holy arm,

and have rejoiced in it above that of the world.

And I soon go to the place of my rest,

which is with my Redeemer;

for I know that in him I shall rest.

then shall I see his face with pleasure,

and he will say unto me:

Come unto me, ye blessed,

there is a place prepared for you in the mansions of my Father.

Amen.
