I vow to thee, my country by Gustav Holst — Lyrics

Gustav Holst English Sacred Hymns Staff notation

Full 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 question, 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.
