“I believe that Liberia is a sacred nation, called by God to a great work for Africa, for the Negro race, and for humanity." - Nathaniel R. Richardson

Daniel Bashiel Warner, the man that gave us the words, "All hail, Liberia, hail!"Composer-pianist Olmstead Luca wrote the strangely "Oh, say can you see"-reminiscent melody.
