“I Believe in Being Honest,” Children’s Songbook of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 149
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.
