I've been a chorister a couple of times. I concentrate on teaching the gospel. If they also learn the music that's fine, but mostly I use the music to highlight the gospel. Of course, there are lots of songs just to have a little fun with. Here is one little game to get you started: for the senior, write the words or short phrases of the song (or verse) on a paper and cut it out like a puzzle (do this at home). Then tape the puzzle piece under chairs. They look under their chair and bring up the puzzle piece and try to put the words and phrases together on the board, meanwhile, trying to sing it with and without knowing all the words or having them all mixed up. It could get silly for a little while. You could have them all bring the pieces up at once, and then sing it, or one at a time, and just sing the word or phrase they brought (out of order!) whatever you like.

"Mormonism" is a system which . . . if carried out . . . [will] fulfill the sayings of the Prophets, both ancient and modern, put down all wickedness, abuse, proscription, misrule, oppression, ignorance, darkness, and tyranny, and restore mankind to righteousness, truth, liberty, law, and government, in which the Lord's will [shall] be done on the earth as it is in heaven. That is what "Mormonism" will do, when carried out . . . (JD 1:297-309).
