Unknown - Barbados Anthem Text lyrics

rate me

In plenty and in time of need

When this fair land was young

Our brave forefathers sowed the seed

From which our pride has sprung

A pride that makes no wanton boast

Of what it has withstood

That binds our hearts from coast to coast

The pride of nationhood

chorus

We loyal sons and daughters all

Do hereby make it known

These fields and hills beyond recall

Are now our very own

We write our names on history's page

With expectations great

Strict guardians of our heritage

Firm craftsmen of our fate

The Lord has been the people's guide

For past three hundred years.

With Him still on the people's side

We have no doubts or fears.

Upward and onward we shall go,

Inspired, exulting, free,

And greater will our nation grow

In strength and unity.
