"I Vow to Thee, My Country" is a British hymn (patriotic song), created in 1921, when a poem by Sir Cecil Spring Rice was set to music by Gustav Holst.
The origin of the hymn's text is a poem by diplomat Sir Cecil Spring Rice, which he wrote in 1908 or 1912, entitled Urbs Dei ("The City of God") or The Two Fatherlands. The poem described how a Christian owes his loyalties to both his homeland and the heavenly kingdom.
In 1908, Spring Rice was posted to the British Embassy in Stockholm. In 1912, he was appointed as Ambassador to the United States of America, where he influenced the administration of Woodrow Wilson to abandon neutrality and join Britain in the war against Germany. After the United States entered the war, he was recalled to Britain. Shortly before his departure from the US in January 1918, he re-wrote and renamed Urbs Dei, significantly altering the first verse to concentrate on the themes of love and sacrifice rather than "the noise of battle" and "the thunder of her guns", creating a more sombre tone in view of the dreadful loss of life suffered in the Great War. The first verse in both versions invoke Britain (in the 1912 version anthropomorphised as Britannia with sword and shield, in the second version simply called "my country"), the second verse the Kingdom of Heaven.
According to Sir Cecil's granddaughter, the rewritten verse of 1918 was never intended to appear alongside the first verse of the original poem, but was replacing it; the original first verse is nevertheless sometimes known as the "rarely sung middle verse". The text of the original poem was sent by Spring Rice to William Jennings Bryan in a letter shortly before his death in February 1918.
The poem circulated privately for a few years, until it was set to music by Holst, to a tune he adapted from his Jupiter to fit the words of the poem. It was performed as a unison song with orchestra in the early 1920s, and it was finally published as a hymn in 1925/6 in the Songs of Praise hymnal (no. 188).

I would like to remind that any kind of hate speech or racism against any group is forbidden and won't be tolerated! Let's enjoy the song and respect those rules so that the video won't be deleted by RUclips!
nah
@@pedroapples1680 bummer
I think you will find the mere act of posting a patriotic song could be interpreted as a hate crime in the current climate.
@@laughingachilles I still believe it won't
@David Bennett
A hymn yes but nearly always associated with UK patriotism. The lyrics are from a poem, I suggest you look up who wrote that poem and why, then you will see it is very much about both heaven and an Earthly country.
As a youth of Britain, it annoys me to see how unpatriotic england is now, I want england to get its spirit back, we have many reasons to be proud
I am a few years off voting but i believe Britain should allow the natives to speak out without being cut down by traitors.
Lol Jim Pickens
Not anymore Jim, not anymore. England is a fraction of what it once was, there's no reason to be patriotic. What do I have to be patriotic about? Our collapsing NHS? Our failing government? Our media that is allowed to release blatant lies and propaganda with no moderation? - England is better than a lot of places to live, but I've got nothing to be proud of.
@@Yeldur bruh stfu
Yeldur i agree that our country has many things that must be worked on. I believe the NHS is failing due to our government purposely cutting their fundings so they can use it as a reason why privatising would be a better alternative (which will never happen) we have rich history, and currently we are a shadow of our former self, but i believe that we will better ourselves, we always have done in the past. After this pandemic, support for the NHS will be better than ever, and our politicians will help support the NHS (not because they are kind people but because they know the popularity will help them get re elected). I genuinely think that our country will drastically improve after this pandemic.
Young English woman and proud. I will install everything patriotic into my children. My dad loved this and died this year, may he RIP. His English flag flys high on his grave.

Dear Laura, my very deepest sympathies for your loss. I hope you have lots of help and support from friends and other members of your family.
This is my favourite hymn and it was played at my Mother's funeral just over 4 years ago. I still feel the pain today.

Take care and Best Wishes to you.
I'm an American guy and I'm from Ogden, Utah, I really love the history of the English people including the culture which is very interesting to me and as an American who has English heritage I will be proud of that, My great-grandparents immigrated to America in the Virginia colony from Lanchashire and Essex, England around the 17th century between the 1600s and most of my English great-grandfathers were from the era of American revolutionary soldiers who fought as continental army and patriot troops in the American revolution against the British, in the American Civil War when some of my great-grandfathers fought on the northern side of the Union and some on the southern side of the Confederacy, most of the troops in the American Civil War at that time were of English descent, until its peak in World War 1 where there were more American soldiers who were then sent to Europe to fight against the German, 80% of 100% were probably of English descent on average and played a major role in the French Argonne Forest in the battle against German troops and the fourth from my great-grandfather, one of whom came from an English lineage original from Texas, Arkansas, Utah and Montana.
English man here Laura. I dread the day I lose my dad, but like yours, he will die an Englishman and I take some comfort in that and hope I can make him proud. God bless you and yours, from me and mine.
@@claytonwaynejohnson5315 English Woman here, Thankyou for your kind words and your respectful comments here. We are all family. Much Love from England.
My dad recently died also. He was a proud English man. England still is a great country. Have faith. Play this song regularly
French here ! This song is beautiful; be proud of yourself England, you ruled the waves once, and a third of the earth beside it. You made the world speak your language, there's nothing you can't do ! 🇨🇵🇬🇧
The last thing i expected was a French comment, thanks for the nice words mate. You French people ain’t all that bad, always had a weak spot for Paris and your women.😅 🇬🇧🇫🇷
Thank you

Merci beaucoup ❤
'once' for a short blip, a micro-second in the grand scheme of the universe, England is nothing and neither is France, your ex colonies and former slaves are now putting you to shame and taking ownership of the history you stole from them
You may feel that you’re alone in Europe, but you have countries and people who will stand by you Britain.
Love from Canada 🇨🇦 🇬🇧 🇦🇺 🇳🇿
Thanks you!
May we forever be allies, forever be friends, forever be family ❤️🇬🇧

Man we can beat russia if we put our mind to it and work together.
You are us, we have always thought of you as our family, part of the great nation that you are a massive part of, you are family
English grandson of Italian immigrants here. Forever proud to be born under English skies. "Her fortress is a faithful heart"

In my opinion, possibly the greatest British boxer ever. Undefeated.

Yes! Portugal is England's oldest ally! Not many people know of the Anglo-Portuguese Treaty of 1373. Yes the treaty between these two nations is that old and still going strong! BTW..I am from the USA and know about the treaty! :)
We all love Portugal

I’m proud to be Scottish, but most the importantly proud to be British. 🇬🇧🇬🇧 Us Scots are Brits too.
of course you are, to the great credit and pride of our nation!
john jack Do your research and you’ll realise that that story is no more than a hoax and a rumour that snuck it’s way into the news and parliaments, no such practices took place.
Always, no matter what the Sturgeons of the world say
@john jack as it was written about the eve of the English Navy defeating the Spanish Armada, you are correct. However, having read many of your comments you are also a racist and look to create arguments amongst people who just want to get along. I wish you well and hope you lose thechip from your shoulder soon
@john jack use of the word Scotland doesn't make anyone racist, it's the attitude that goes with it.
A beautiful country with great people, being destroyed by its own politicians.
From Scotland 🏴
You can say that again pal,like all the peoples of thease isles,sold out to globalists.
I love Scottish people like you, and I think the same thing is happening to your country, but hopefully we can restore our cultures and pride in the next coming years🏴🏴
Thank you Scotland, we are ALL British my dear friend
Scottish people are patriotic and love their country because of the lack of religion and race problems.
Their parents teach them to be proud of their history and culture.
I cant say the same for England because prayer and support for the empire and commonwealth isnt being taught to our younger generation and it pains me to see a country that strives from its history and ancient culture fade because of traitors and non-natives.
Keep preaching brother. We will get through to them one day, I hope.
As a young British man, and a proud Yorkshire man and Englishman, I’m ashamed to see how unpatriotic and how immoral many parts of Britain have become today. We need to preserve our glorious heritage.
Britain must not forget its roots
Remember the empire
hey, in your country their are still patriotic in mine the ultimate rival of france patriotism is unfortunatly dead and buried
if someone say remember the empire, soooo for them we are racist and we need to die...

It would be if the people could decide
That's somerthing I've been saying for some time now, England needs its own anthem to distiguish it from the rest of the UK, and God Save the Queen doesn't do that. P.S. Love Europeans, do not like the EU; just saying that.
Yep totally agree. England needs its own anthem.
Probably because it would piss off the Scots, Welsh and Irish.
Thank you to our dear friends from Germany , This tune does tug at the heart strings i agree . We do have a few more worthies too Thank you for your lovely comment
On a truly dark day for Britain, the truest patriots of the nation return to hear this song. This song that promises a stout heart in the face of trial and opposition. No Matter the cost or price. Today the nation, and world, laments the passing of a devout servant of the crown. A woman who vowed to serve this nation to her dying breath. And that she did so.
Queen Elizabeth II. Rest now O faithful Queen. Your reign is done. Your duty fulfilled without fault.
The torch passes to the next servant of the relm.
The Queen is dead. Long live the King!

I recently heard an English clergyman say this song was racist and should be banned. I was speechless. He said that sleeping under the blanket of freedom that Wolfe, Wellington, and Churchill gave him. This song is a national treasure. Never stop singing it. It inspires all of us. England will never die if this song stays alive. From a Yank.
We dont claim the clergyman thankyou for the kind words I appreciate it the relationship between our countries is a great one and I treasure it deeply 🇬🇧🤝🇺🇲
Jake Smith thanks for the kind words. Keep the faith. If shit keeps going wrong in USA, some of us may secede and return to the crown.
loser alert
Jim Friend: Our arms can't reach across the Atlantic but our thoughts can, most intensely in song, not least of which is this one from Holst. We are brothers in spirit. Long live America and long live England!
Good job no Scottish, Welsh and Irish fought under Churchill. Oh hang on........
American soldier here, and hymns like this make me feel the kinship between our peoples all the more. Truly a lovely bit of culture for your cousins across the Atlantic to enjoy.
agreed. very well said!
You Americans are our true Allies, you know, you real people of your Nation!
Brothers in arms mate and like all brothers we have our squabbles and take the mick but ultimately we are the ones that really do the business - god bless :)

@@virginiamiller9765 Nice to know that there's some American's who are proud of their British ancestry and not just those "Irish-Americans" that don't stop talking about their Irish ancestry, even though there's more "British/Anglo-Americans" than "Irish-Americans". 😄
Am English, and proud. Not racist, just patriotic 🏴👍🏻❤️
The fact that you had to state that youre not racist after having said you're patriotic sums up what the world is descending into. Always be proud of your nation, fuck what anyone else thinks 🏴🏴

Unemotionally and rationally, I sincerely believe that assertion to be true.
Yeah right your absolutely delusional if you really think we are the best nation on earth..Lols😂
As an Englishman, I'm proud to be English. I'm also proud to be British. I love my Scottish and Welsh brothers and hope that we stay British forever. Just because we are British does not mean we give up being Scottish, Welsh, or English we can be our own and still be proud to be together as Brits!!!
True Britons that our grandfathers and great grandfathers and for some great-great grandfathers had fought the world for us to be and remain British!!
I love all my British companions dearly! And I truly hope they love us English back too!
We are a formidable force when we are united!

I love you ❤🇬🇧❤️
England isn't very patriotic anymore, but I feel this country has a lot to be proud of, and I'm proud to be a British girl ❤
It is very patriotic, usually the media portrays patriotism as racist and right wing though, they can call me what they want but it'll never stop me being proud of being born British, this far green country is our home and its people and itself are beautiful, we have a very long a beautiful culture and history that everyone born here should be proud of.
RIP Queen Elizabeth II
Depends where in the nation you go... I'd say the northern cities are still very much patriotic.
England was a Nation once, and one day England will be a Nation again. No longer a mere Province of the United Kingdom, her people living for three hundred years as stateless strangers under Welsh, Scottish and Irish rule, but a sovereign, independent, self-governing Nation-State.
I'm 65, as patriotic as I ever was and so it will remain. I thank God I was born English and will always be proud of our country, its people, history, heritage, culture and Christianity. Our United Kingdom is unique in the world. Despite our differences over hundreds of years we have stayed together and are at our strongest in spirit at the call to arms in defending our islands and helping others across the world.
God bless and protect us all from the evil that now pervades in governments and all institutions in our world ✝️✌️
Don't mess with God's creation ✝️
I'm originally from Hong Kong (fled to US as a kid before communist takeover), but I will forever be loyal to the British crown. Nothing touched me more than seeing a large group of Hong Kong protesters singing God Save the Queen in unison in defiance of the Chinese communist regime in 2019. The Chinese communist party can jail us or even kill us all, but we will never give up our dream of one day reuniting with the British Empire again. Rule, Britannia!
As a patriotic Welshmen I’m saddened to see that many of my English brothers and sisters no longer share the same pride in England as the Welsh, Scots in their countries 🇬🇧
It might be because every time we do we get called racist
you just need to move outside of London to see it
I think many outside of metropolitan areas probably feel proud to be English. I am a proud Englishman, we have contributed a lot to the world, like the advancement of philosophy, representative democracy, technology, sports, food the list goes on. I am also proud as an Englishman to have brothers in the Welsh, Scots and Irish. Regardless of whether they feel the same about the English. Over the years it's become increasingly "racist", "far right" to be proud to be English. They describe you as a drunk football hooligan. All the sentiment around not being able to wave an English or British flag. It's all ridiculous.
Oh yes we do ,not as overt as our Celtic cousins but believe me it's there.

Just a frenchman passing by, enjoying this beautiful song. Much love to you all in these hard times. You'll stay our best ennemies les rosbifs

Oh that was just silly squabbles in the past - I would be proud to support France - sending love from the UK
Crusader: I'm of British heritage and proud of it. But I do not like being your enemy, because both our countries and much of Europe are now faced with the same enemy rivals within our countries. And this is where we may have to form some sort of an alliance.
I'm an American. I have no greater respect for the English. For the Brits. For the UK. Great people, great country. I leave you this... The ENTIRE world speaks your language, plays your national past time ( football), knows your algorithms, knows your science, knows your exploration ( yes an colonialism)... but in the end... the world is greater for all the English, UK has done.
Hola hola! Germany and other nations have famous engineers, scientists, doctors, musicans, etc too. No entire world speaks english. Many people speaks english because it is langua franca nowadays due to superpower of USA. Mother languages of more people are spanish, chinese.
Today's UK is not good country. It is no empire nowadays. The kongdom becomes poorer. The star of UK is fading away. Exploration - you mentiioned.. What about hispanic, portugese explorers?
Colonailism was very bad and it is shame for western countries. Examples of South Korea, Japan, Poland and others countries proves that country can develop without colonialism.
If Canal La Manche (English Canal) did not exist, Great Britain could be conquered by France or Germany. Before WWII Germany has superpower in the Europe.
Wow !!!!!
Everyone everywhere has the right to express their opinions but remember UK and commonwealth countries and the vital help from America saved the world in world war 11 , otherwise Nazi Germany 🇩🇪 would have Nation’s of slaves , remember all the people gassed in concentration Camps, I ‘m proud to be British and everything it stands for there are 54 countries in the commonwealth enjoying a healthy happy life,

I'm ashamed to admit that I didn't know this hymn until my Father posthumoustly requested it for his funeral. We both served in the British Army for a good stretch of years and I confess to breaking down when I listened to this through for the first time. It resonates with me, personally and desperately. I am of course all for it being the national anthem, it says it all.
24th of May, when I was a small child in England this was called Empire Day . We would dance around the Maypole and have a parade. Then came September 1939 , and we were fitted for our gas masks which we carried in a cardboard box. But soon people started to knit covers and embroidered them. almost a fashion statement. We went through The rationing, oh for some chocolate!! We huddled in our homes when the bombers went over, and the houses shook when the bombs were dropped, my dad always seemed to know when it was one of ours (planes) or one of theirs. So very long ago . Love the patriotic English hymns and songs, it’s a wonderful country.

I'm French but still, this is one of the most beautiful anthem I've ever heard. English people can be really proud!
Edit : I also love your country and your people ( from a froggy^^)
France is a beautiful country too, we may have fought a lot over the years but I see France as my brother. We're all European, we're all brothers. - Love from the UK
Thank you my friend, & no more brother wars. Europe is for Europeans, every unique sovereign state preserved, f*** the EU.

As an American my heart weeps for all of Britain. I'm so glad after our history we managed to be great allies. The queen played our national anthem when 9/11 happened in solidarity. Rest in piece Queen Elizabeth The Second. Long live the Queen. Today our flags have gone down half way in order for respect. 🇺🇸 🇬🇧🏴 Friends forever and allies till the end of days. God bless The UK
We are kindred after all
Can we just take the whole comment section, build a little traditional village somewhere up in the countryside and keep a small piece of England traditional and English?
Whoa
We need that
Go to Buxton where i live still very traditional and beautiful
Love this.
If you tried it, you would never be left alone. Every inch of England above the high-tide mark must be changed and changed utterly forever. The only safety is to push out your village's borders until they touch the shore, and there maintain them at any cost.
_"We shall fight in France. We shall fight on the seas and the oceans. We shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air."_
_"We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds."_
_"We shall fight in the fields and the streets. We shall fight in the hills, we shall never surrender."_
_"Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties, and so bear ourselves."_
_"That if the British Empire and its Commonwealth last for a thousand years, men will still say, 'This was their finest hour'."_ -Sir Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill.
Churchill is the reason we speak English vs German in the western world - true hero and The Last Lion
And if, which I do not for a moment believe, this island or large part of it, were subjugated and starving, then our empire, beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British fleet, would carry on the struggle, until in gods good time, the new world, with all its power and might steps forth to the rescue, and the liberation of the old.
Boris's speech:
We shall greet them on the beaches,
we shall greet them on the landing grounds, we shall meet them in the fields and in the streets,
we shall put them up in the hotels,
and army camps and let them roam freely,
To (terra roar rise) the local inhabitants,
We shall never (de port) them!

I hope that this will be sung for Queen Elizabeth as it was for Winston Churchill at his funeral. She embodied this song with her vow to devote her whole life, whether it be long or short, to the service of her country. As an American, I adore this song as it’s patriotism can be felt. Our politicians could learn a thing or two from reading and believing these lyrics.
Your sentiment is heartfelt, but the song was originally written in the 1800’s then revised for a patriotic boost for the British troops in WW1, although the song was played at Churchill’s funeral. When I listen to this song it puts a lump in my throat and makes me proud to be British 🇬🇧
It was sung at Her Majesty’s Memorial Service at the National Cathedral in Washington DC. It is one of my favorite hymns and always gives me a lump in my throat.

@@the0nlycmac To be honest the Entente ("Allied") cause in WWI was in no way valiant or good as it was in WWII. It was simply another war about some diplomatic issue in the balkans, that swiftly escalated into a war between major powers. If anything, the war was an accident, but inevitable. The Agadir Crisis nearly sparked WWI, earlier in the 1910's. Some may argue that a Central Powers victory would be better for world history. Hitler would likely remain docile, the Soviets would never rise to power as the Germans would swiftly intervene in the east. Mao wouldn't either, because there wouldn't be any Soviets to back him up.
The "Kaiserreich" scenario is unrealistic as well. So don't expect a WWII at all. Austria Hungary would likely become Hungarian dominated and would collapse in the later decades into similar countries we saw before WWII (no Yugoslavia, though). Ottomans would've collapsed no matter what. Germany, on the other hand, would end up forced to liberalize in the coming decades as Wilhelm II declines in health. In the 60's they will decolonize.

We've been sold out by greedy politicians and greedy shareholders, our once great engineering, manufacturing and even power companies all sold off to other countries, shame on the people that let this happen, nothing short of treason.
I have faith. Faith that one day, when Brexit is concluded the commonwealth will become even closer, as they, we were before. The crooked, delusional anti patriot politicians that are in office today will be ruined and hopefully the rest crushed to the point they resign and we may just have a shot at rebuilding our government the right way, with proud countrymen. The commonwealth account for over half of the worlds young population today, there are only prospers to come and no doubt some truly proud periods of bonding with our loyal members of the commonwealth.
Brexit raises some threats to my personal relationships, which I’m sure are nothing but hysteria and insecurity of what lies ahead, but I’m sure logically speaking everything will be as it was before and only get better as time goes on.

I am a proud American and veteran of the United States Army. While I love my country and many patriotic songs, I am so jealous that you have such a beautiful song as one of your patriotic songs. It has a beautiful melody and simple lyrics about love of God and country. I had the pleasure of meeting some British Army soldiers at my battalion commander's change-of-command ceremony in West Germany. They were members of a British Army signal unit and I'd grown to love being in their company and talking with them and I wished we had met more often than that just one time. This should be the national anthem of Britain but keep God Save the Queen for Her Majesty.
The song is very Church of England but it was deliberately written to be universal. No country, religion or god is named. It's about love of country. Anyone can sing it with pride.
Just listened to this hymn with tears in my eyes. My mother was British, father was Canadian. Father (and grandfathers) fought in World Wars. Mother worked in London war offices during the Blitz. They all survived, but they all risked their lives, with pride and love for their country and the free world.
Now, it all seems to be in vain. It breaks my heart. I am a 66 year old woman with only my words and my vote to state my case. I feel helpless to all of the changes being forced upon us.
We've enjoyed our hard-earned freedoms, and now we are just giving them away.
Thank you
Very sad how our own politicians have betrayed the people that they are meant to represent and protect.(Also, I am an American, but we have the same problem as well, it seems that the whole west does.)
Unfortunately we all seem to have taken our eye off the ball and have surrendered to the new world order.
