- Fair Antigua and Barbuda
- We thy sons and daughters stand
- Strong and firm in peace or danger,
- To safeguard our native land:
- We commit ourselves to building
- A true nation, brave and free!
- Ever striving, ever seeking
- Dwell in love and unity.
- Raise the standard! Raise it boldly!
- Answer now to duty call:
- To the service of your country,
- Sparing nothing giving all!
- Gird your loins and join the battle
- Gainst fear hate and poverty:
- Each endeavouring, all achieving,
- Live in peace where man is free!
- God of nations, let thy blessing
- Fall upon this land ours
- Rain and sunshine ever sending
- Fill her fields with crops and flowers:
- We, her children do implore thee:
- Give us strength, faith, loyalty:
- Never failing, all enduring
- To defend her liberty.
