Rewrite of Les Miz's Do You Hear the People Sing?


Do You Hear the Mormons Sing?

 Written by NintendoGamer5000 for the purpose of a Pioneer Trek

Do you hear the Mormons sing?
Singing a song of righteous men?
It is the music of a people
Who won’t lose their homes again!
Though the darkness is our blight
We know the Lord won’t leave our side
Christ is our Savior, Lord, and Friend
And our truth and light!


Will you join in our crusade?
Who will be strong and stand with me?
Beyond the desert glade
Is there a world you long to see?

Then join in the fight
That will give you the right to be free!

[All:]
Do you hear the Mormons sing?
Singing a song of righteous men?
It is the music of a people
Who won’t lose their homes again!
Though the darkness is our blight
We know the Lord won’t leave our side
Christ is our Savior, Lord, and Friend
And our truth and light!


Will you give all you can give
So that the Gospel may advance
Some will fall and some will live
Will you stand up and take your chance?
The blood of our martyrs
Will give us much more than a glance!

[All:]
Do you hear the Mormons sing?
Singing a song of righteous men?
It is the music of a people
Who won’t lose their homes again!
Though the darkness is our blight
We know the Lord won’t leave our side
Christ is our Savior, Lord, and Friend
And our truth and light!

Like it says up there, I wrote this for a Pioneer Trek. It was very entertaining to write, and I very much enjoyed taking part of this. It was very difficult to figure out some of the lyrics, though. Much of it already fit into the actual Mormon Pioneers trek and trials, I just changed the chorus and some of the verses.

The original song is not mine. Copyright Les Miserables.
