Do you remember a brave girl
She has been engaged by parents
To a man who was full of blaspheme;
But now she refused to marry him.

Men were angry,wanted her killed;
But she said,'Kill me,it is the body,
That will suffer and not my spirit;
I'll give it to death for christ's benefit.

Have you heard of Joshua hart of bonny?
The first Nigerian to die for his faith;
You could read it in your primary days,
Christians who suffered in divers ways.

It was a great honor to be made bishop
His diocese was big unlike ones we see today
But was not wanted and treated as outsider
I think this happened to Bishop Crowther.

As nihilists made more troubles,
When he spoke against slave trading
Or the ignoramus murdering of pairs;
Or Dandeson killing the sacred gilas.

Being a slave,he worked so hard;
In the 1880,when he came to Lagos
He was said to be big teller of old tale,
He died and now his own story too is detailed.
