I Vow to Thee (THAXTED) for Eight Handbells

I Vow to Thee, My Country is based on the THAXTED theme from the “Jupiter” movement of Gustav Holst’s suite The Planets. In the United Kingdom, it’s sung to words written by Cecil Spring-Rice about dedication to God and country. In some US hymnals, this melody is matched to O God, Beyond All Praising.

This was the offertory we played on our last Sunday before moving to Michigan, and it continues to be one of our absolute favorites!
