You tube

Found this on you tube sung by some guys named Adam Ashby and Ben. I can't seem to get this song out of my head. I love the ukelele!

Lyrics to "How Can I Be"

How can I be like my brother Nephi?
My father Lehi of old?
How can I be like Captain Moroni
In the wars that were told?

How can I see forever
Like the promise to the three Nephites?
I wanna be Samuel the Lamanite
I wanna be Benjamin the Wise
I wanna be like Abinidi
Oh tell me how can I be like them?

How can I be like Alma the Younger,
Strong servant of the Lord?
How can I be like Mighty Ammon,
Whose heart was his sword?

How can I be a stripling warrior,
And learn to fight by faith?
I wanna be Samuel the Lamanite
I wanna be Benjamin the Wise
I wanna be like Abinidi
Oh tell me how I can be like them?

How can I be like my brother Joseph,
when he prayed in the grove of trees?
How can I have, the strength that
he had , the love that he had for God?
How can I be courageous and strive
to choose the right?

I wanna be Samuel the Lamanite
I wanna be Benjamin the Wise
I wanna be like Abinidi
I wanna be like Jesus Christ
Oh tell me how can I be like him?
Oh tell me how can I be like him?

Margaret,
That was so wonderful! Thanks for sharing that. I really needed it!
I love you and miss you. Hope you're basking in the time you're all together before Dustin has to head out. You're in my thoughts and prayers.
Love you,
