“The Golden Plates,” Children’s Songbook of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 86
Gratefully
1. The golden plates lay hidden
Deep in the mountainside,
Until God found one faithful,
In whom he could confide.
2. A record made by Nephi,
Written in days of old;
Now, in the Book of Mormon,
The story is retold.
Words: Rose Thomas Graham, 1875–1967
