In Plenty and In Time of Need
In Plenty and In Time of Need (bos. U obilju i potrebi) je državna himna Barbadosa. Napisao ju je Irving Burgie i komponovao ju je C. Van Roland Edwards. Kao dio Federacije zapadnoindijskih otoka od 1958. do 1962. godine, himna Barbadosa je trebala biti Forged from the Love of Liberty (koja je trenutna državna himna Trinidad i Tobaga), međutim, trenutna himna je napravljena sa ciljem potpune nezavisnosti Barbadosa. Pjesma je usvojena kada je zemlja postala nezavisna 1966. godine.[1]

Tekst
uredi- In plenty and in time of need
- When this fair land was young
- Our brave forefathers sowed the seed
- From which our pride was sprung
- A pride that makes no wanton boast
- Of what it has withstood
- That binds our hearts from coast to coast
- The pride of nationhood
- Refren:
- We loyal sons and daughters all
- Do hereby make it known
- These fields and hills beyond recall
- Are now our very own
- We write our names on history's page
- With expectations great
- Strict guardians of our heritage
- Firm craftsmen of our fate
- The Lord has been the people's guide
- For past three hundred years.
- With Him still on the people's side
- We have no doubts or fears.
- Upward and onward we shall go,
- Inspired, exulting, free,
- And greater will our nation grow
- In strength and unity.
- (Refren)
