[George F. Richards]
Attended Prayer Circle meeting at 6:19 P.M. Pres[iden]t. [Francis M.] Lyman presiding. I related a dream or Visit I had wherein I saw and embraced the Savior on the 22nd or 23rd of March last. The seeing of him was something beautiful but that of itself would have been of little significance as compared with the results of my embracing him. My whole being seemed to be thrilled with the power of his love and I was in deed in heaven. The singing of the hymn''I Need Thee Every Hour' brings this vision fresh to my mind hence this my favorite hymn.
