Hymn 698 – FOR all the saints who from their labours rest | C&S English Hymnary

1. FOR all the saints who from their labours rest Who Thee by faith before the world confessed Thy name, O Jesus, be for ever bless'd Alleluia, Alleluia. 2. Thou wast their rock, their fortress and their might Thou, Lord, their Captain in the well fought fight Thou, in the darkness Thou their own true light Alleluia. 3. Oh may Their soldier, faithful true and bold Fight as the saints who nobly fought of old And win with them, the victor crown of gold Alleluia. 4. Oh blest Communion fellowship divine We fecbly struggle, they in glory Shine Yet all are one in Thee for all are Thine Alleluia. 5. And when the strife is fierce, the warfare long Steals on the ear the distant triumph song And hearts are brave again and arms are strong Alleluia. 6. The golden evening brightens in the west: Soon soon to faithful warriors come the rest Sweet is the calm of Paradise the bless’d Alleluia. 7. But Lo, there breaks a yet more glorious day: The Saints triumphant rise in bright array The King of Glory passes on His way Alleluia. 8. From earth’s wide bounds from ocean's farthest coast Through gates of pearl streams in the countless host Singing to Father Son and Holy Ghost Alleluia AMEN
