In 2001, I wrote the lyrics for the song ‘I’m Proud Of My Country Australia’. In June 2026 a soundtrack was produced for the song.
It is an Australian anthem.
Below are the lyrics for the song.
I’m Proud Of My Country Australia
Deep in my heart
I love our great land
It’s where I know I belong
And the home I’ll defend
(Chorus)
I’m proud of my country
Australia! Australia!
Our land of hope
Our land of freedom
I’m proud of my country
Australia! Australia!
Our land of hope
Our land of freedom
Through many battles and struggles
We have united together
Never let us forget the sacrifice
That kept Australia free
I’ll always love my country
A land of timeless beauty
Long let our flag fly high
Over our great land
(Chorus)
I’m proud of my country
Australia! Australia!
Our land of hope
Our land of freedom
I’m proud of my country
Australia! Australia!
Our land of hope
Our land of freedom
