"I Vow to Thee, My Country" - English Patriotic Song 

"I Vow to Thee, My Country" is an English patriotic song written in 1921 by Sir Cecil Spring Rice. The melody was borrowed from another patriotic song "Thaxted". "I Vow to Thee, My Country" is often considered the anthem of England. This is because the state doesn't have an official national anthem, and several songs serve as an anthem
Lyric:
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 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.
The love that asks no questions, the love that stands the test,
That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best
I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above,
Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love;
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.
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.
