This is new music adapted from a text by Eliza R. Snow. The song utilizes the first two stanzas as Verse 1, the next two stanzas as Verse 2, and the important last stanza as the chorus. There is quite a bit of “word painting” in the music, meaning that some text is represented musically or symbolically. See how many instances you can identify.
