Come and sing this hymn of praise,
Now raise your voices in joyful songs,
For the blessings of this day,
Let us carry the flame of liberty,
To enlight the darkened way,
With patience and with dignity,
Let us lead to a better day.

We will hold your banner high
As we live to honour your memory
May your glory never die.
