## Lyrics

Do you have any idea where they're sending you, Elder Price?

**(Elder Price; Spoken)** Well, of course, we don't really have final say over where we get sent but

I have been praying to be sent to my favorite place in the whole world

Well, if you prayed for a location, I'm sure Heavenly Father will make it happen

You're like the smartest, best, most deserving Elder the center's ever seen

Aw, c'mon, you guys

**(Elder Price; Sung)** The most important time of a Mormon kid's life

Is his mission

A chance to go out and help heal the world

That's my mission

Soon I'll be off in a different place

Helping the whole human race

I know my mission will be

Something incredible

**(Mission President)** Elders, form a line and step forward when your name is called

Elder Young

**(Elder Young)** Yes sir?

**(Mission President)** Your mission brother will be Elder Grant

That, that's me, hey brother

**(Mission President)** And your mission location is Norway

Oh wow, Norway

Land of gnomes and trolls

**(Missionaries)** Hoo wah

Hey ya

Shoo wah

Zadup wow

Two by two, we're marching door to door

'Cause God loves Mormons and he wants some more

A two-year mission is our sacrifice

We are the army of the church of Jesus Christ

Of Latter-day Saints

Two by two

And today we'll know

Who we'll make the journey with and where we'll go

We're fighting for a cause but we're really really nice

We are the army of the Church of Jesus Christ

Of Latter-day Saints

**(Mission President)** Elder White and Elder Smith

Oh, I knew we'd get paired together

**(Mission President)** Your location will be France

France, land of pastries and turtlenecks

**(Missionaries)** Two by two

I guess it's you and me

We're off to preach across land and sea

Satan has a hold of France

We need to knock him off his perch

We are the soldiers of the army of the church

Of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

**(Mission President)** Elder Cross and Elder Green, you will be serving in Japan

Oh, Japan

Land of Soy Sauce

And Mothra

**(Mission President)** Elder Harris and Elder Brown

**(Elder Price)** Heavenly Father

Where will I go on my mission?

(on my mission)

Will it be China or ol' Mexico on my mission?

(my mission)

It could be San Fran by the bay

Australia where they say "G'day"

But I pray I'm sent to my favorite place

Orlando

Orlando

I love you

Orlando

Seaworld and Disney

And Putt-putt Golfing

**(Mission President)** Elder Price

Yes sir

**(Mission President)** Your brother will be Elder Cunningham

**(Elder Cunningham)** That's me, that's me, hello

**(Elder Price)** Oh, hi

**(Mission President)** And your mission location is Uganda

**(Elder Price)** Uganda?

**(Elder Cunningham)** Uganda? Cool, where is that?

**(Mission President)** Africa

**(Elder Cunningham)** Oh boy, like Lion King

**(Missionaries)** Two by two

And now it's time to go

Our paths have been revealed

So let's start the show

Our shirts are clean and pressed

And our haircuts are precise

We are the army of the church

We are the army of the church

We are the army of the church of Jesus Christ

Two by two (two by two)

We march for victory

Armed with the greatest book in history

We'll convert everyone

All across the planet Earth

That is the beauty of

The essence of

The purpose of

The mission of

The soldiers of the army of the Church

Of Jesus Christ

Of Latter-Day Saints
