I Vow To Thee My Country by Sir Cecil Spring Rice
I Vow To Thee My Country
[Verse 1]
C F G C Em F G Am
I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above,
Em F G C F Dm C
entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love.
C G Am G C G C F
The love that asks no question, the love that stands the test,
Am Em F C Dm Am G
that lays upon the altar the dearest and the best.
Em F G C Em F G Am
The love that never falters, the love that pays the price,
Em F G C F Dm C
the love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.
[Verse 2]
C F G C Em F G Am
And there’s another country, I’ve heard of long ago,
Em F G C F Dm C
most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know.
C G Am G C G C F
We may not count her armies, we may not see her King,
Am Em F C Dm Am G
her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering.
Em F G C Em F G Am
And soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase,
Em F G C F Dm C
and her ways are ways of gentleness, and all her paths are peace.
