Between the deep blue ocean And the Caribbean Sea Where the waves are all in motion Lies a Pearl so dear to me From Quill to little mountain From Venus to White Wall Long ago a golden fountain Once a diamond waterfall CHORUS: Golden Rock I'll always miss you When I am far from thee Never ever I'll forget you Wheresoever I may be Statia's past you are admired Though Rodney filled his bag The first Salute was fired To the American Flag The freedom of a nation Promoted by our Fort American and Statian Both praise for it our Lord CHORUS Among the ruined houses Of Low and Upper Town There a lofty feeling rouses Which never will break down It's faithfulness forever As ever it has been May God forsake us never And save Governor and Queen
