Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team


I will be what I believe


Living in this world with change all around

But with the prophets' words, I'll stand on solid ground.

Even though it's still hard, with questions that arise,

Every day I will say:

'll have faith like brother Joseph and the strength of the pioneers. I'll be brave as a strippling warrior and like Nephi persevere.

I will spread God's love to all I know and serve.

I will plead with my Father on my knees: I will be what I believe.


We'll spread the gospel wide throughout all the earth

With Jesus as our guide we'll weild the sword of truth.

Even though it's still hard, with questions that arise,

Every day, I will say:


I'll have faith like brother Joseph and the strength of the pioneers. I'll be brave as a strippling warrior and like Nephi persevere.

I will spread God's love to all I know and serve.

I will plead with my Father on my knees: I will be what I believe.


We are as the army of Heleman. We have been taught in our youth, and we will be the Lord's missionaries to bring the world His truth.


I'll have faith like brother Joseph and the strength of the pioneers. I'll be brave as a strippling warrior and like Nephi persevere.

I will spread God's love to all I know and serve.

I will plead with my Father on my knees: I will be what I believe.


I will be what I believe.
