Today marks the 145th Anniversary and Founders’ Day of Methodist Boys’ High School, Lagos. The MBHS95 Set wishes to collectively congratulate the students, staff and all other Alumni on this wonderful landmark by the school.
It is our prayer that the school as an institution will continue to grow in leaps and bounds, and keep churning out gentlemen and leaders that impact families, societies, States, and Nations.
Let’s celebrate this one by singing our wonderful school song yet again.
- Land of our birth, we pledge to thee; Our love and toil in the years to be; When we are grown and take our place | As men and women with our race.
- Father in Heav’n, who lovest all, | O help Thy children when they call; That they may build from age to age | An undefilèd heritage!
- Teach us to bear the yoke in youth, | With steadfastness and careful truth; | That, in our time, Thy grace may give | The truth whereby the nations live.
- Teach us to rule ourselves always, | Controlled and cleanly night and day, | That we may bring, if need arise, | No maimed or worthless sacrifice.
- Teach us to look in all our ends, | On Thee for judge, and not our friends, | That we, with Thee, may walk uncowed | By fear or favor of the crowd.
- Teach us the strength that cannot seek, | By deed or thought, to hurt the weak, | That, under Thee, we may possess | Man’s strength to comfort man’s distress.
- Teach us delight in simple things, | And mirth that has no bitter springs, | Forgiveness free of evil done, | And love to all men ’neath the sun!
- Land of our birth, our faith, our pride, | For whose dear sake our fathers died; | O motherland, we pledge to thee | Head, heart and hand through the years to be!
