"My country, __ of thee" (3)

I believe the answer is:

tis

(Other definitions for tis that I've seen before include "McCourt work" , "Pacific trees" , "... the season to be jolly" , "That thing's" , "I confirm the identity of" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, the Newsday and the King Feature Syndicate.
