Hail! Grenada, land of ours,
We pledge ourselves to thee,
Heads, hearts and hands in unity
To reach our destiny.
Ever conscious of God,
Being proud of our heritage,
May we with faith and courage
Aspire, build, advance
As one people, one family.
God bless our nation.

Salvation! Grenada, our country,
We commit to you
Heads, hearts and hands in unity,
To fulfill our destiny.
In everlasting awareness of God
Proud of our heritage,
May we in faith and valor

Like a people, like a family.
God bless our nation.
