March On BahamaLand

On July 10, 1973, a new nation was born. As we celebrate our 40th year of Independence, let's renew our commitment to the words penned by the composer of our great Bahamas national anthem, the late Timothy Gibson. Lift up your head to the rising sun, Bahamaland,
March on to glory, your bright banners waving high,
See how the world marks the manner of your bearing ;
Pledge to excel thro' love and unity.

Pressing onward, march together, to a common loftier goal ;
Steady sunward tho' the weather hide the wide and treacherous shoal.
Lift up your head to the rising sun, Bahamaland,
'til the road you've trod lead unto your God, March on Bahamaland.


Happy Indpendence, Bahamas!
