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

repeat

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
