    All hail, Liberia, hail!
    All hail, Liberia, hail!
    This glorious land of liberty
    Shall long be ours.
    Though new her name,
    Great be her fame,
    And mighty be her powers,
    Though new her name,
    Great be her fame,
    And mighty be her powers,
    And mighty be her powers,
    And mighty be her powers,
    In joy and gladness
    With our hearts united,
    We'll shout the freedom
    Of a race benighted,
    Long live Liberia, happy land!
    A home of glorious liberty,
    By God's command!
    A home of glorious liberty,
    By God's command!
    All hail, Liberia, hail!
    All hail, Liberia, hail!
    In union strong success is sure
    We cannot fail!
    With God above
    Our rights to prove
    We will o'er all prevail,
    We will o'er all prevail,
    We will o'er all prevail,
    With heart and hand
    Our country's cause defending
    We'll meet the foe
    With valor unpretending.
    Long live Liberia, happy land!
    A home of glorious liberty,
    By God's command!
    A home of glorious liberty,
    By God's command! 🇱🇷💕💕💕💕💕

    Thank you so much for the video. Glad you had the opportunity to go outside the US and experience different part of the World. I’m a Liberian living in Ohio. It’s amazing what the African Americans have done with the English language here. I can’t understand a word. I feel like America have her own native language. This is my two years in the US now. Very interesting.

    Potatoes greens are the leaves from sweet potatoes when cooked they taste like spinach.
    Habanero pepper in America is hot but not as hot as Liberian chili pepper.

    Thank you so much for this video. I’ve watched many missionaries share about Liberia, and I must say, you presented Liberia very well...with respect and honesty. Thank you! Your narrative showed that you went to Liberia with an opened mind and therefore enjoyed the people and culture. We love you yah! You mon cam bak oh(in my Liberian Colloquial)😊🙏🏾

    Your time in Liberia seems to be before 2018: before the election of George Weah the current President of Liberia.
    Ellen Johnson Sirleaf is the former president of Liberia and the U.N Peace Keeping force has left Liberia. Just an update. Thanks

    The value of family in Liberia is like a whole village. Like he said, it takes a village to raise a child. Any one can be a family in Liberia. Besides a man can have as many wives he wants but women are forbidden to that.
