I Vow to Thee my Country

Lyrics

I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above
 Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love
 The love that asks no questions, the love that stands the test
 That lays upon the altar, the dearest and the best
 The love that never falters, the love that pays the price
 ♪
 The love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice
 And there's another country, I've heard of long ago
 Most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know
 We may not count her armies, we may not see her King
 Her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering
 And soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase
 And her ways are ways of gentleness and all her paths are peace
