Happy 53rd Independence Bahamas🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸
Move Up Bahamaland

Spread your mighty wings Bahamaland,

Ascend to loftier heights,

Like the golden eagle Bahamaland,

Spread your mighty wings and fly.



Move to the mountain-top Bahamaland,

With muscles strong and firm,

Like Olympian champions of ancient Greece,

Stand steadfast and firm.



Move up to the mountain-top Bahamaland,

With a faith of granite steel,

Like a towering mountain embrace the sky,

Stand forever tall and firm.



God’s strength be thine Bahamaland,

To hold thee safe and sure,

And when thy night is dark and dim,

May God protect thee more.



Excel to the mountain-top Bahamaland,

For ‘tis there where you belong,

God’s Grace and Power will bear thee up,
Move up Bahamaland, up where you belong.

Move Up Bahamaland

By The Legend H.P.C.

Spread your mighty wings Bahamaland,

Ascend to loftier heights,

Like the golden eagle Bahamaland,

Spread your mighty wings and fly.



Move to the mountain-top Bahamaland,

With muscles strong and firm,

Like Olympian champions of ancient Greece,

Stand steadfast and firm.



Move up to the mountain-top Bahamaland,

With a faith of granite steel,

Like a towering mountain embrace the sky,

Stand forever tall and firm.



God’s strength be thine Bahamaland,

To hold thee safe and sure,

And when they night is dark and dim,

May God protect thee more.



Excel to the mountain-top Bahamaland,

For ‘tis there where you belong,

God’s Grace and Power will bear thee up,

Move up Bahamaland, up where you belong.
