English lyrics
- God bless our homeland Ghana
- And make our nation great and strong,
- Bold to defend forever
- The cause of Freedom and of Right;
- Fill our hearts with true humility,
- Make us cherish fearless honesty,
- And help us to resist oppressors' rule
- With all our will and might evermore.
- Hail to thy name, O Ghana,
- To thee we make our solemn vow:
- Steadfast to build together
- A nation strong in Unity;
- With our gifts of mind and strength of arm,
- Whether night or day, in the midst of storm,
- In ev'ry need, whate'er the call may be,
- To serve thee, Ghana, now and evermore.
- Raise high the flag of Ghana
- And one with Africa advance;
- Black star of hope and honor
- To all who thirst for liberty;
- Where the banner of Ghana free flies,
- May the way to freedom truly lie;
- Arise, arise, O sons of Ghanaland,
- And under God march on for evermore!de:God Bless Our Homeland Ghana
