I Vow to Thee, My Country Hymn (+lyrics) - Westminster Abbey RAF Centenary Service
The patriotic hymn, I Vow to Thee, My Country, set to the tune, THAXTED, sung at the RAF Centenary Service at Westminster Abbey on Tuesday 10th July 2018.
The words are from two verses of a poem by Sir Cecil Spring Rice, "Urbs Dei" ("The City of God") or "The Two Fatherlands". Describing how a Christian owes his loyalties to both his homeland and the Kingdom of Heaven, Gustav Holst harmonised a section of music of 'Jupiter', from his suite 'The Planets', to fit the poem. Note that the last line of the second verse is a reference to Proverbs 3:17, "Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace" (KJV), where the feminine pronoun refers to Wisdom. @ 2:35
