I taught Our Time to Shine (archives) to my Primary in 2017 as a brand new chorister! It’s a song I really loved (and still do) because it shows scripture heroes that are both male and female!
Here you’ll be able to grab one, or both, of these Our Time to Shine Flip Chart printables for Primary (master list)!

Our Time to Shine Lyrics
This song is written by Janice Kapp Perry and was published in the Friend magazine. It is considered pre-approved to teach in Primary. You can get the free sheet music here.
Verse 1:
Like Esther of old I’ll stand,
True to the Lord’s commands.
Defending with courage and serving with faith
In Heavenly Father’s plan.
Verse 2:
Like Nephi of old I’ll stand,
Blessing my fellow man,
Protecting with honor and showing respect
For Heavenly Father’s plan.
Verse 3:
Like Abish I’ll serve with might,
Spreading the gospel light.
I’ll tell those I meet of its wonderful truths.
My faith in the Lord burns bright.
Verse 4:
Moroni, who stood for right,
Never gave up the fight.
Like him I will strive to be noble and true.
I’m holding my banner high.
