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 blessed 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 drear their one true light: Alleluia! Alleluia! 3. O may thy soldiers, faithful, true, and bold, Fight as the saints who nobly fought of old, And win, with them, the victor's crown of gold: Alleluia! Alleluia! 4. Oh, blest communion, fellowship divine, We feebly struggle, they in glory shine; Yet all are one within your great design. Alleluia! 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! Alleluia! 6. The golden evening brightens in the west; Soon, soon to faithful warriors cometh rest; Sweet is the calm of paradise the blessed: Alleluia! 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! 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! Alleluia! Amen.
