Love to God and our Neigbour
Appears in 74 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 22 First Line: Thus saith the first, the great, command Lyrics: 1 Thus saith the first, the great, command,
Let all thy inward powers unite
To love thy Maker and thy God
With vigour and delight.
2 Then shall thy neighbour, next in place,
Thy warm affections prove;
And be thy kindness to thyself
The measure of thy love.
3 This Moses and the prophets spoke,
And Jesus from above;
For want of this the law is broke,
And all the law is love.
4 But oh, how base our passions are!
How cold our blinded zeal!
Lord, fill our hearts with warm desires,
To learn and do thy will.

I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above
Author: Cecil Arthur Spring-Rice (1859-1918) Meter: 13.13.13.13.13.13 Appears in 22 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 22:21 Lyrics: 1 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 question, 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.
2 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. Topics: The Holy Spirit The Church Celebrates - National Life; Remembrance Sunday; Stages of Life Used With Tune: THAXTED

She is the wife of Bill Gaither and also sang in the Bill Gaither Trio, one of the most influential groups in recent Christian music.
She was born Gloria Lee Sickal in 1942 in Michigan, a daughter of pastor Lee Sickal and Dorothy Sickal. She spent most of her childhood and high school career in the Battle Creek area of Michigan, working a brief time for the Kellogg Company. When Sickal graduated from high school, she attended Anderson University in Anderson, Indiana. There, she triple majored in English, French, and Sociology. Upon her graduation, she took a job at Alexandria Monroe High School as a French teacher. There, she met Bill Gaither, who was teaching English at the time. She married Gaither in 1962, and they began writing songs recreationally. By the end of the 1960s, Gloria, Bill, and his brother Danny Gaither were touring steadily, as the Bill Gaither Trio.
