Trinidad
and Tobago National Anthem
Forged from the love of Liberty
In
the fires of hope and prayer
With boundless faith in our Destiny
We solemnly declare:
Side by side we
stand
Islands of the Blue Caribbean Sea
This our native land
We pledge our lives to thee.
Here
ev'ry creed and race
Find an equal place
And may God bless our nation.
(repeat)
Here ev'ry creed and race
Find an equal place
And may
God bless our nation.
