In Plenty and In Time of Need is the national anthem of the country of Barbados. It was written by Irving Burgie (1926-) and was composed by C. Van Roland Edwards (1912-1985). As one part of the West Indies Federation Barbados' anthem was supposed to be Forged from the Love of Liberty, however the current anthem was created with Barbados' moves toward independence. This song was then adopted by Barbados when it became independent in 1966.
