1. Shall the youth of Zion falter;
Shall the light of truth be dimmed?
Will we watch and pray and labor
So that we can come to Him?
Yes, we know we’ve made a promise,
In our cause there is no shame;
So no matter what the cost is
We’ll be strong to bear His name.
We are examples of the believers,
We are examples of the truth;
In faith we stand firm
With hearts that are pure,
And walk in the joy and strength of youth.
We are examples of love and mercy,
We are examples in word and deed;
We’re learning to live as the Savior has shown us,
For He’s our example
And we follow where He leads.
2. As an army ’cross the nations,
We, united, stand as one;
And together raise our standard –
We will fight till He has come.
So extend your hand, my brother;
Sister, lift your flame on high
As the youth of noble birthright
Join to sing their battle cry:
We are examples of the believers,
We are examples of the truth;
In faith we stand firm
With hearts that are pure,
And walk in the joy and strength of youth.
We are examples of love and mercy,
We are examples in word and deed;
We’re learning to live as the Savior has shown us,
For He’s our example
And we follow where He leads.
In word, conversation,
In charity, in truth,
In spirit, in faith,
In purity,
As youth.
We are examples of the believers,
We are examples of the truth;
In faith we stand firm
With hearts that are pure,
And walk in the joy and strength of youth.
We are examples of love and mercy,
We are examples in word and deed;
We’re learning to live as the Savior has shown us,
For He’s our example,
And we follow where He leads.
For He’s our example,
And we follow where He leads.
