Free MP3: “Adam-ondi-Adman”
by -“Adam-ondi-Ahman,” a little-known Mormon pioneer hymn, refers to a 19th-century Mormon belief. At the last day, Christ will gather together the great patriarchs and prophets, back to Adam, at a place called Adam-ondi-Ahman. According to Mormon belief, this grand counsel will meet prior to Christ’s second coming.
This arrangement is quite modern! Hope you enjoy!
This earth was once a garden place,
With all her glories common;
And men did live a holy race,
And worship Jesus face to face,
In Adam-ondi-Ahman.
We read that Enoch walk[e]d with God,
Above the pow[e]r of Mammon:
While Zion spread herself abroad,
And saints and angels sung aloud
In Adam-ondi-Ahman.
Her land was good and greatly blest,
Beyond old Israel’s Canaan:
Her fame was known from east to west;
Her peace was great, and pure the rest
Of Adam-ondi-Ahman.
Hosanna to such days to come-
The Savior’s second comin[g]-
When all the earth in glorious bloom,
Affords the saints a holy home
Like Adam-ondi-Ahman.
Aside from this hymn, I also like a lot of other Mormon music.
