I am so sad for Cain and Abel's story. Because I just learned that there was another that was worse than not his brother's keep. And that was Lamech. :'(
He killed Enoch (the prophet's) son, because of secret combination [according to the book of Moses, fifth chapter.
It makes me extremely Sad. Are tattle tellers meant to pass away. I don't think so. So this is very hard for me to read about in the book. Realization of these things are difficult to fathom, and why did I not see this before; not sure, but I know now. Two Songs in dedication of the first person sacrificed. And for all those in between. Thanks be to God that we have him below us, to lift us to the highest heights.
Walk the path that thou hast shown,
Finding strength beyond my own.
(Chorus)
Follow the prophet, follow the prophet,
He killed Enoch (the prophet's) son, because of secret combination [according to the book of Moses, fifth chapter.

1. Savior, may I learn to love thee,
Walk the path that thou hast shown,
Pause to help and lift another,
Finding strength beyond my own.
Savior, may I learn to love thee--
(Chorus)
Lord, I would follow thee.
2. Who am I to judge another
When I walk imperfectly?
In the quiet heart is hidden
Sorrow that the eye can't see.
Who am I to judge another?
Lord, I would follow thee.
3. I would be my brother's keeper;
I would learn the healer's art.
To the wounded and the weary
I would show a gentle heart.
I would be my brother's keeper--
Lord, I would follow thee.
4. Savior, may I love my brother
As I know thou lovest me,
Find in thee my strength, my beacon,
For thy servant I would be.
Savior, may I love my brother--
Lord, I would follow thee.

2. Enoch was a prophet; he taught what was good.
People in his city did just what they should.
When they were so righteous that there was no sin,
Heav’nly Father took them up to live with him.
Follow the prophet, follow the prophet,
Follow the prophet; don’t go astray.
Follow the prophet, follow the prophet,
Follow the prophet; he knows the way.
