3 Nephi 4 Their Hearts Were Swollen With Joy


As the chapter heading says: “praise the Lord for [our] victories.”   With the Gadianton Robbers defeated, things are looking up.  The people “…rejoice and cry again with one voice, saying: May…God…protect this people in righteousness, so long as they shall call on the name of their God for protection.  They broke into song, “praising God for the great thing[s] which he had done for them….Yea, they did cry:  Hosanna to the Most High God….And their hearts were swollen with joy, unto the gushing out of many tears, because of the great goodness of God in delivering them…and they knew it was because of their repentance and their humility that they had been delivered….
