Wisdom Community School now has a flagpole. We are proud to display the Zambian flag in front of the school.
This video shows the children of Wisdom singing the Zambian national anthem as the flag is raised for the first time on June 6, 2013.
The children are lead in the national anthem by the school's manager, Rev. Charles Mwila Mutumbala. The flag is raised by Ed Edwards, leader of the Living Well mission team. The mission team built a concrete foundation for the flagpole as part of the installation. The team stands behind the children in observance of the flag raising.
The words to the national anthem are listed below.
Stand and sing for Zambia, proud and free,
Land of work and joy in unity,
Victors in the struggle for the right,
We have won freedom's fight.
All one, strong and free.
Africa is our own motherland,
Fashion'd with and blessed by God's good hand,
Let us all her people join as one,
Brothers under the sun.
All one, strong and free.
One land and one nation is our cry,
Dignity and peace 'neath Zambia's sky,
Like our noble eagle in its flight,
Zambia, praise to thee.
All one, strong and free.
Chorus:
Praise be to God,
Praise be, praise be, praise be,
Bless our great nation,
Zambia, Zambia, Zambia.
Free men we stand
Under the flag of our land.
Zambia, praise to thee!
All one, strong and free.
