English Lyrics
Verse 1
I vow to thee, my country, All earthly things above, Entire and whole and perfect, The service of my love: The love that asks the reason, The love that stands the test, That lays upon the altar The dearest and the best; The love that never falter, The love that pays the price, The love that makes undaunted The final sacrifice.
Verse 2
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,nHer pride is suffering; And one by one and fervently We pray for her increase, And her ways are ways of gentleness And all her paths are peace.
