Mary Magdalen (Thirty years later): On the Resurrection of the Spirit
Jesus, The Son of Man (1928)
Context: Once again I say that with death Jesus conquered death, and rose from the grave a spirit and a power. And He walked in our solitude and visited the gardens of our passion.
He lies not there in that cleft rock behind the stone.
We who love Him beheld Him with these our eyes which He made to see; and we touched Him with these our hands which He taught to reach forth.

Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith, 121 (8 May 1838)
1830s

As quoted in Kierkegaard, the Melancholy Dane (1950) by Harold Victor Martin.
Variant translation:
I believe in Christ and confess him not like some child; my hosanna has passed through an enormous furnace of doubt.
