Faith Like His

About the Song

Lyrics

I love this story from the Book of Mormon. The brother of Jared was a man of great faith and courage.  Through modern revelation we have learned his name. I hope children will love learning about his choices and how faith is a way to bring miracles into our lives.  

Music Video

Mahonrimoriancumer was

The brother of Jared's name,

And from the tow'r of Ba-bel

All of the Jaredite people came.

 

They built some lightweight barges.

Then with his family inside,

Prepared to sail to the promised land

Across the ocean wide.

 

Mahonri built eight barges tight,

All like dishes without a light.

And then he gathered sixteen stones,

Each was smooth and small and white.

 

He took them to the Savior,

Whose finger touched the glassy stones.

The brother of Jared saw the Lord;

The Savior's glory shown.

 

Said Jesus of Mahonri's faith,

"I will show myself unto you."

Because of his great hope and trust

His faith in the Savior grew;

 

Someday I can have faith like his

By obeying and trusting too.
