Pretty much the same way the men's quartet I sang in for sacrament a few weeks back did - straight from the hymnal. And, yes, before you ask, they are the traditional words.

For what it is worth, I grew up in a "small" town (of 100k+) outside of Los Angeles. When I was on my foreign mission and people asked me where I was from, I told them "LA" and not the name of the small town that they likely never heard of before. You see, I used a reference that they were familiar with in order to facility comprehension.
