I vow to thee my country歌词

作词 : Cecil Spring-Rice
作曲 : Gustav Holst

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 alter
The dearst 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 I 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
