These are the Mormon songs I sang constantly as a child, and I still know (almost) every word by heart. Sing along with me as I break down the lyrics and explain the doctrine behind some of the most brain-washy Mormon music. Music was how belief was taught before doubt was allowed. If you grew up Mormon or super religious, this will feel uncomfortably familiar. And if you didn’t… you may be shocked these songs are real haha.
