Honor Thy Father and Thy Mother

HONOR THY FATHER AND THY MOTHER. (M. I. A. and Sunday School Song, for the Improvement Era.) Honor thy father, honor thy mother; Ever for thee do they labor and pray, While they reprove thee Still do they love thee, Yield them respect, and their counsels obey. CHORUS. That thy days may be long in the promised land, That thy Lord hath given thee,— Honor and cherish thy father and mother,— God gave this mandate forever to be. Virtue shall crown thee, wisdom shall teach thee. As thou dost ever thy parents revere,

350 IhiriiO VEMENT ERA. When thou dost meet them Lovingly greet them, Seeking their confidence, welfare and cheer. Honor thy father, honor thy mother, Ask their advice and its purposes learn, Love shall caress thee, Heaven shall bless thee, Giving thee honors bestowed in return. J L. TOWNSEND. Payson, Utah.
