Armies of Helium
Words by Joe Ficklin
TTTO We’ll Bring the World His Truth (Army of Helaman) by Janice Kapp Perry

We have been born / Like people of old To live on this earth / And sing in our range But now there's gas / That we can inhale That lifts our voices / And cause them to sail For we are as the armies of helium Singing the songs that we please And we will shame all the sopranos Hitting the high notes with ease Save your balloons / Do not let them pop For if they're set free / Our singing will stop This element lighter / Than all air before Will quickly escape / Through all open doors They use it for science / We use it for fun We may as well use it / Before it is gone Breathe deep from the balloon / And then let it pass Hitting those high notes / It's really a gas!
