I seemed to be surrounded with light, and to be rising higher and higher from the earth. I turned to look for the advent people in the world, but could not find them, when a voice said to me, “Look again, and look a little higher.” At this I raised my eyes, and saw a straight and narrow path, cast up high above the world. On this path the advent people were traveling to the city which was at the farther end of the path. They had a bright light set up behind them at the beginning of the path, which an angel told me was the “midnight cry.” This light shone all along the path, and gave light for their feet, so that they might not stumble. {LS 64.2}

Jeg lod til at være omgivet med lys og være hævet højere og højere fra jorden. Jeg vendte mig for at se efter i verden, men jeg kunne ikke finde dem, da en stemme sagde til mig: "Se igen og se lidt højere op." Da jeg vendte mine øjne op og så en lige og snæver sti, hævet højt over verden. På den sti rejste adventfolket mod byen, som var langt oppe for enden af byen. De fik et klart lys sat op bag dem, ved stiens begyndelse, som englen fortalte med var "midnatsråbet." Dette lys oplyste kun stien, så deres fødder ikke kunne træde forkert.
