Bill Cole elevates county meet with new anthem ‘sweet Liberia’

MONROVIA – The Liberian County Meet is a unifying event that connects everyone to one agenda: the love of our nation. As the new government, led by President Joseph Boakai, works assiduously to ensure constructive economic growth and a better standard of living for the people, we remain united, speaking one language at this moment—sports.

The Liberian County Meet is an annual event that has become a cultural heritage, showcasing the rich cultures and traditions of various counties. It’s a time when everyone wants to associate with their roots, wear their county sports jersey, wave their county flag, and cheer their preferred team with songs of victory and joy.

Amidst this season of togetherness, Liberian international musician and songwriter Bill Cole has recorded the biggest and most relatable song to honor the unity, peace, and love of the people. We all understand the great impact of music during the County Meet, as musicians often seize the moment to release songs representing their counties. This practice heightens rivalries between teams, making the event even more entertaining while bringing attention and success to the musicians. However, Bill Cole has taken a different approach, proving himself to be a man of the people. Irrespective of his county of origin, he has selflessly created a song that could be regarded as a perfect rendition of our national anthem.

The song ‘Sweet Liberia’ is a masterpiece. With the rawness of genuine emotion, Bill Cole sings:

Sweet Liberia land, land of the free,
Great hills and rivers flowing to the sea.
From Monrovia’s light to Nimba’s peak,
Your beauty, the home that my heart seeks.

Liberia, our pride and joy,
You gave me roots since I was a boy.
Through all the storms, you still stand strong.
Sweet home, Liberia, where I belong.

Red dark roads in golden skies,
The warmth of the sun where hope never dies.
People so proud, hearts so true,
Together we rise, me and you.

Liberia, our pride and joy,
You gave me roots since I was a boy.
Through all the storms, you still stand strong.
Sweet home, Liberia, where I belong.

Through all the wars and peace, you held your grace,
The strength of our mothers, the courage we face.
From the market bright to the jungles deep,
Your spirit’s alive in every beat.

Oh, sweet Liberia, forever you will be,
A land of strength and unity.
No matter how far or where I roam,
You will always be my heart, my home.

Bill Cole, who holds a master’s degree in cybersecurity, has upheld the pride of his nation through music. Leveraging the energy and enthusiasm of sports lovers during the County Meet, he reminds us that there’s no place like home, choosing peace and unity over chaos. ‘Sweet Liberia’ is the lead single from his forthcoming album, ‘Librason’, a musical project boasting international collaborations that aim to propel Liberia onto the global music stage.

The ‘Librason’ album promises to deliver not just songs that make people dance and forget their sorrows but also timeless tracks that transcend borders, languages, and cultural barriers. From club anthems to reflective ballads, this album is set to be a milestone for Liberian music and a gift to fans worldwide.
