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 maynot 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
