GOD BLESS OUR NATION

Marjorie Padmore

 

God bless our nation

Of many varied races

May we possess that common love

That binds and makes us One.

Let it be known around the World

That we can boast of Unity

And take a pride in Our Liberty.

 

God bless our isles of tropic beauty rare

Of flaming Poinciana

And shady immortelle

The warm and sparkling waters

That beat upon our shores

Beat out a tune that seem to tell

We take a pride in Our Liberty.

 

God bless our leaders

Give them grace to guide

Bestow on them thy judgement wise

To rule our land aright

To keep the flag of freedom high that we may sing most lustily

We take a pride in Our Liberty.
