This Is a Great Nation!

"Men may fail in this country, earthquakes may come, seas may heave beyond their bounds, there may be great drought, disaster, and hardship...

...but this nation, founded on principles laid down by men whom God raised up, will never fail. 

This is the cradle of humanity, where life on this earth began in the Garden of Eden. This is the place of the New Jerusalem. This is the place that the Lord said is favored above all other nations in all the world. This is the place where the Savior will come to His Temple. This is the favored land in all the world. 

Yes, I repeat, men may fail, but this nation won't fail. 

I have faith in America; you and I must have faith in America, if we understand the teachings of the gospel of Jesus Christ."

-Harold B. Lee ("Ye Are the Light of the World," pp. 350-351)
