Gustav Holst, Libera, Robert Prizeman & Robert Prizeman - Angel Voices: Libera in Concert

I vow to thee my country

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

And all her paths are peace
