Scripture Power Song History

Check out this fun story from an article in the Deseret News entitled Scripture Power key is simplicity:

Clive Romney gave the world “Scripture Power.”

“I count it as the best thing I’ve ever done,” he says of the children’s song. “But the song is not my fault.” It’s the fault of a persistent Primary president named Sandy F. Gagon.

Sandy, it seems, had started a program to encourage kids to keep their scriptures handy. She called the push “Scripture Power.” And went to Romney and asked him to write a song for the program.

Scripture Power Lyrics and Music

Find the sheet music to Scripture Power on the Church’s website.  The lyrics of Scripture Power are so catchy which help children feel excited and confident about using the scriptures everyday:

Because I want to be like the Savior, and I can, I’m reading His instructions, I’m following His plan. Because I want the power His word will give to me, I’m changing how I live, I’m changing what I’ll be.

 

Scripture power keeps me safe from sin. Scripture power is the power to win. Scripture power! Ev’ryday I need The power that I get each time I read.

I’ll find the sword of truth in each scripture that I learn. I’ll take the shield of faith from these pages that I turn. I’ll wear each vital part of the armor of the Lord, And fight my daily battles, and win a great reward.
 

Scripture power keeps me safe from sin. Scripture power is the power to win. Scripture power! Ev’ryday I need The power that I get each time I read.

Bryn shared a video on the Primary Music Leader’s containing fun sword actions for teaching Scripture Power!  She Says:

Just thought I’d share what I did to introduce Scripture Power. One of …the spirit brought back what I learned in my weapons combat class at BYU (random I know but so fun) I had forgotten about it since I never use it. I thought it would be too complicated for these kids but decided to follow the prompting anyway. So glad I did. There was a spirit of strength during the lesson. You can also try this with Armor of God second verse.
