OH BEAUTIFUL VIRGIN ISLANDS
Out of the huts of history's pain
Our ancestors bled and died
But with strength and will power we overcame
To restore Virgin Islands pride!
To preserve your beauty we devised a plan
To retain ownership of your precious lands!
Educating your people is the golden key
To maintain the success of this Territory!
We shall protect your bountiful shores
And uphold your dignity!
We shall fight to preserve your culture!
Your splendour and integrity!
And we shall never fail to understand
How blessed we are to possess this land!
So we shall unite standing proud and tall
Let none divide us, lest we fall!
Oh how radiant are your daughters!
And how wealthy are your sons!
Your beaches boast your beauty!
And your success is second to none!
Green and brilliant are your hillsides!
They replenish our hopes and pride!
Oh Beautiful Virgin Islands!
Your qualities can never be denied!
May God richly bless this Territory!
May we ask three things of thee,
Courage for our great leaders
That they may rule our destiny!
We ask for wisdom for our people
That we may live in harmony!
And understanding for our children
So they may cherish this legacy!
