I may not be asked to build a great big ship
Or sail my family 'cross the ocean blue
But if I had the faith and courage Nephi did
Imagine all the great things I could go and do

The Lord has a special message for me
In every scripture story I read
And I can become who I'm striving to be
When I liken the scriptures to me

I may not raise a tent to hear the prophet speak
But I can listen when he speaks today
And I don't have a sword to bury ten feet deep
But I can cast my selfishness away

The Lord has a special message for me
In every scripture story I read
And I can become who I'm striving to be
When I liken the scriptures to me

Like Enos, I will fervently pray
Like the Stripling Warriors, I will obey
Like Abish, I will share what I know
And like Ammon, I'll go where I'm called to go

The Lord has a special message for me
In every scripture story I read
And I can become who I'm striving to be
When I liken the scriptures to me
When I liken the scriptures to me
