"If You Could Hie to Kolob"- Lex de Azevedo

Great musical arrangement by Lex de Azevedo. All pictures came from NASA’s astronomy picture of the day archive. “If You Could Hie to Kolob“ (hie, to hasten) is a Latter-day Saint hymn that was written by the early Mormon W. W. Phelps. The music is taken from a well-known folk tune known as “Dives and Lazarus“. It was originally published in 1842 in Times and Seasons and is hymn number 284 in the 1985 hymnal for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The hymn makes only a single reference to Kolob, in the first line of the hymn (from which the hymn’s title is derived).
