It was written and composed by Ioteba Tamuera Uriam and adopted upon independence on 12 July 1979. Its lyrics were confirmed as per Schedule 3 of the National Identity Act 1989.
The anthem was selected after a nationwide song competition to find a national anthem. Among those who participated in the competition were local composer and Protestant missionary Rev. Tom Toakai.
According to the National Identity Act 1989, the piece is to be sung at an andante tempo of 108.
