I never cease to marvel how a poet can put so much into so few words. Case in point, the song we are singing next Sunday in Primary. It's called "I Lived in Heaven." This is just the third verse:
Jesus was chosen, and as the Messiah he came,
Conquering evil and death through his glorious name,
Giving us hope of a wonderful life yet to be--
Home in that heaven where Father is waiting for me.
And then when you put it to music, it can cause tears to come when you sing it.
Perhaps it's because I have TWO fathers waiting for me!

I too love and cry singing that third verse.
