How can I be like my brother Nephi?
How can I be like Captain Moroni
In the wars that are told?
Like promised to the Three Nephites?
I wanna be Samuel the Lamanite
I wanna be King Benjamin the Wise
(How can I be like them?)
How can I be like Alma the Younger (how can I be)
Who was born of the Lord?
How can I be like Mighty Ammon (how can I be)
Whose heart was his sword?
And how can I be a stripling warrior
And learn to fight by faith?
I wanna be Samuel the Lamanite
I wanna be King Benjamin the Wise
I wanna be like Jesus Christ
How can I be like them? (How can I be?)
