I Believe in Being Honest

Children’s Songbook of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints


With conviction

I believe in being honest;

I believe in being true,

That honesty should start with me

In all I say, in all I do.

I’ll form good habits in my youth,

To keep my word, to tell the truth,

To speak up in defending right

And keep my name and honor bright.

I believe in being honest;

I believe in being true,

That honesty should start with me

In all I say, in all I do.
