The Cap Stone

BY W. W. PHELPS.

Have you heard the revelation, As a Judas did the Lord.

Of this latter dispensation, CHORUS-We are a band of brethren, &c.

Which is unto every nation,

O! prepare to meet thy God? And their chief is Sidney Rigdon,

CHORUS -We are a band of brethren, Who's a traitor, base, intriguing,

And we've rear'd the Lord a temple, And will fight at Armageddon,

And the cap stone now is finish'd, When the fire comes down from God.

And we'll sound the news abroad. CHORUS-We are a band of brethren, &c.

Go and publish how Missouri, While the devil such men jostles,

Like a whirlwind in its fury, With his "keys of conquest morsels,

And without a judge or jury, We'll uphold the Twelve apostles,

Drove the saints and split their blood. With authority from God.

CHORUS-We are a band of brethren, &c. CHORUS-We are a band of brethren, &c.

Illinois, where satan flatters, And we'll give the whole world a sample,

Shot the prophets too, as martyrs, Of our faith and works most ample,

And repeal'd our city charters, When we've finished off the temple,

All because we worhip'd God As a dwelling for the Lord.

CHORUS -We are a band of brethren, &c. CHORUS-We are a band of brethren, &c.

Bennett, Law and many others, And we'll feed the saints that's needing,

Have betray'd our honest brothers, And improve our hearts by weeding,

To destroy our wives and mothers, Till we make Nauvoo as Eden,

Where the saints can meet the Lord.

CHORUS-We are a band of brethren, &c.
