Adam-ondi-Ahman (with Clayton Pixton)

Hymn by William W. Phelps of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, written in 1830's to an existing tune (anon.). Text based on revelations given to the prophet Joseph Smith and one given to the prophet Daniel. (Scriptures are shown at end of video.) Footage is on location in southwestern Missouri.

Adam-ondi-Ahman was taught to be the place Adam and Eve dwelt following their expulsion from the Garden of Eden, where Adam prior to his death met with his contemporary prophets and his righteous posterity, and where he will again meet his righteous posterity, along with past prophets, prior to the second coming of the Savior, and will officially pass to Him the keys of the kingdom of God on the Earth.

Thank you, all. I fell in love with this hymn as a college student at BYU after being basically introduced to it by Church History professor Alex Baugh, whose favorite hymn it is. I still love it.

Correction for end of 1st paragraph--location is western Missouri, not southwestern.
