Alleluia, alleluia! 4 O blest communion! fellowship divine! we feebly struggle, they in glory shine; yet all are one in thee, for all are thine. 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 blest. 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.
