Lyrics 🎶 1 NOW praise we great and famous men, Our fathers named in story; And praise the Lord, who now as then, Reveals in man His glory. 2 Praise we the wise and brave and strong, Who graced their generation; Who helped the right, and fought the wrong, And made our folk a nation. 3 Praise we the great of heart and mind, The singers sweetly gifted, Whose music like a mighty wind The souls of men uplifted. 4 Praise we the peaceful men of skill, Who builded homes of beauty, And, rich in art, made richer still The brotherhood of duty. 5 Praise we the glorious names we know, And they whose names have perished, Lost in the haze of long ago, In silent love be cherished. Beautifully played by Rev Winfred Lomotey Nartey-Graham.
