A Patriot's Prayer by Ohene Adu-Nti — Lyrics

About A Patriot's Prayer
Ohene Adu-Nti's A Patriot's Prayer is a stirring anthem for SATB choir, setting words that are both a fervent plea for national well-being and a humble petition for divine guidance. The text prays for peace, prosperity, honesty, strength, and freedom for the motherland, while also seeking forgiveness for its iniquities. It calls for the nation to know and uphold God's will. The prayer extends to the nation's leader, asking for righteousness, wisdom, and strength to serve with dignity. This English-language work offers a powerful opportunity for a choir to express deep-seated national aspirations rooted in faith and a desire for moral integrity.
