“What do you suppose the fathers would say if they could speak from the dead? Would they say, ‘We have lain here thousands of years, here in this prison house, waiting for this dispensation to come?’...
What would they whisper in our ears?
Why, if they had the power the very thunders of heaven would be in our ears, if we could but realize the importance of the work we are engaged in. All the angels in heaven are looking at this little handful of people, and stimulating them to the salvation of the human family....
When I think upon this subject, I want the tongues of seven thunders to wake up the people.”
Brigham Young at dedication of the
St. George Temple, January 1, 1877
