This Is My Island In The Sun
Where My People Have Toiled Since Time Begun
I May Sail On Many A Sea
Her Shores Will Always Be Home To Me

CHORUS
Oh, Island In The Sun
Willed To Me By My Father's Hand
All My Days I Will Sing In Praise
Of Your Forest, Waters, Your Shining Sand

As Morning Breaks The Heaven On High
I Lift My Heavy Load To The Sky
Sun Comes Down With A Burning Glow
Mingles My Sweat With The Earth Below

CHORUS

I See Woman On Bended Knee
Cutting Cane For Her Family
I See Man At The Waterside
Casting Nets At The Surging Tide

CHORUS

I Pray The Day Will Never Come
When I Can't Awake To The Sound Of Drum
Never Let Me Miss Carnival
With Calypso Songs Philosophical

CHORUS
