A children's song, telling the story of the sons of Mosiah from the Book of Mormon, Another Testament of Christ. Â Music by Kevin G. Pace. Â Text by Kathryn W. Hales.
Text:
The Lord told King Mosiah to let his sons go away,
To the land of Nephi where for many years they'd stay.
They wanted to preach the gospel in the Lord's ministry,
To the sinful, wicked Lamanites who were their enemies.
Now one of the sons was Ammon who had been a rebellious youth,
But after Alma's change of heart, he wanted to know the truth.
He became Lamoni's servant, watching over the king's sheep,
He beat some robbers who came to steal, leaving a pile of arms at his feet.
Then he taught King Lamoni the true source of his strength and might,
That the king should change his ways, repent and do what's right.
Lamoni believed what Ammon taught and all his people too,
They became so very righteous because God's promises are true.
Aaron was another son of Nephite King Mosiah,
He taught of the Creation, of the Fall and God's Son who would die
To save all men from death and sin, yea, Jesus, the Holy One,
Who would come to earth at some future day to save each and ev'ry one.
Omni and his brother Himnor were also Mosiah's sons,
But not much is recorded about their missions.
But they were faithful servants during all their trial filled days,
They taught many people how to walk in God's own chosen way.
Chorus:
I want to be like Mosiah's sons and share God's holy word.
I can be a missionary, a servant of the Lord.
I can be so very courageous, I can the gospel teach,
That all may know God's holy grace is within their loving reach.
