youth battalion medley

Medley of "True to the Faith," "Hope of Israel," and "Called to Serve."

 

I have the privilege of working with youth and teens in my church. I absolutely love it—love them! Russell M. Nelson has invited all youth everywhere to enlist in the "Lord's Youth Battalion." He calls today's youth the "Hope of Israel." I see it. I believe it. And as my son finished his mission this summer, I felt drawn to put this medley together for the rising generation.

LYRICS:

Shall the youth of Zion falter in defending truth and right?
While the enemy assaileth, shall we shrink or shun the fight? No!

True to the faith that our parents have cherished,
True to the truth for which martyrs have perished,
To God’s command, soul, heart, and hand,
Faithful and true we will ever stand.

 

Hope of Israel, Zion’s army, Children of the promised day,
See, the Chieftain signals onward, and the battle’s in array!

 

Called to serve Him, heav’nly King of glory,
Chosen e’er to witness for his name,
Far and wide we tell the Father’s story,
Far and wide his love proclaim.

 

Hope of Israel, rise in might with the sword of truth and right;
Sound the war-cry, “Watch and pray!” Vanquish ev’ry foe today.

 

Faithful and true we will ever stand.
God our strength will be.
