Which Stanza Of The National Anthem Should Be Adopted In Nigeria? by bish2(m): 11:00pm On Sep 30, 2011 |
Personally, I feel neglecting the second stanza of the National Anthem is the root of heightened Corruption, Violence, Injustice, Dishonesty, Tribalism, Mis-management, Etc. in the country today. As The Saying Goes "THE FEAR OF THE LORD IS THE BEGINNING OF WISDOM" and "WISDOM IS PROFITABLE TO DIRECT" Comparing The Contents Of The Two Stanzas, I believe The First Stanza Should Be Relegated To The Second Stanza And The Second Stanza Promoted To The First Stanza. What Do You Think? FIRST STANZA Arise O Compatriots Nigeria's Call Obey To Serve Our Fatherland With Love And Srength And Faith The Labour Of Our Heroes Past Shall Never Be In Vain To Serve With Heart And Might One Nation Bound In Freedom Peace And Unity SECOND STANZA O God Of Creation Direct Our Noble Cause Guide Our Leaders Right Help Our Youths The Truth To Know In Love And Honesty To Grow And Live In Just And Truth Great Lofty Heights Attain To Build A Nation Where Peace And Justice Reigns HAPPY INDEPENDENCE CELEBRATION TO US ALL. 1 Like
