National Anthem of The Bahamas
Lift up your head to the rising sun, Bahamaland,
March on to glory, your bright banners waving high,
See how the world marks the manner of your bearing ;
Pledge to excel thro' love and unity.

Pressing onward, march together, to a common loftier goal;
Steady sunward tho' the weather hide the wide and treacherous shoal.
Lift up your head to the rising sun, Bahamaland,
'til the road you've trod lead unto your God, March on Bahamaland.

The Queen is head of The Commonwealth of The Bahamas. When the National
Anthem is played or sung in public, everyone stands still, and Cub Scouts stand at the alert.
This is a sign of respect for The Queen and also for the Country. Every Country has a
National Anthem and just as we should stand still for our National Anthem so we should
stand still for the National Anthem of another Country. Have you noticed on TV at
International soccer matches that both teams stand still for both National Anthems.
( b ) KNOW THE NATIONAL PLEDGE OF YOUR COUNTRY.

Pledge of Allegiance

I Pledge my allegiance to the flag and to
the Commonwealth of The Bahamas
For which it stands,
one people united in love and service.
