Yeah, that's so, so powerful, and, like, can we just talk about these [laughs] for a second? Because whenever Isaiah's talking about singing, it's like Alma says, it's the song of redeeming love.
5:13
Like, he's referring to this redemption.
5:16
And in verse 14, how can we be singing and be so grateful for the Lord's mercy and then immediately think the Lord hath forsaken me and my Lord hath forgotten me? Like, what happened in between the singing and verse 14? And this is all about redeeming the dead, and how long are some people going to be waiting for someone to do their temple work, right? This is one of the reasons why it's so important for us to know about these verses, because those people might feel forgotten, and it's our responsibility to go to the temple and make sure they know, no, no, God has not forgotten you.
5:50

5:53

5:55
God is talking about this everlasting covenant.
