O heavenly Jerusalem
Author: Isaac Williams Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #401b (1894) Meter: 8.7 D Topics: All Saints Lyrics: 1 O Heavenly Jerusalem,
Of everlasting halls,
Thrice blessèd are the people
Thou storest in thy walls.
2 Thou art the golden mansion,
Where saints forever sing,
The seat of God's own chosen,
The palace of the king.
3 There God for ever sitteth,
Himself of all the crown;
The Lamb, the Light that shineth,
And never goeth down.
4 Naught to this seat approacheth
Their sweet peace to molest;
They sing their God forever,
Nor day nor night they rest.
5 Sure hope doth thither lead us;
Our longings thither tend;
May short-lived toil ne'er daunt us
For joys that cannot end.
6 To Christ, the Sun that lightens
His Church above, below;
To Father, and to Spirit
All things created bow.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: [O heavenly Jerusalem]

Our God, our help in ages past
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Together in Song #47 (1999) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: All Saints and All Souls Lyrics: 1 Our God, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come,
our shelter from the stormy blast,
and our eternal home:
2 under the shadow of your throne
your saints have dwelt secure:
sufficient is your arm alone,
and our defence is sure.
3 Before the hills in order stood
or earth received its frame,
from everlasting you art God
to endless years the same.
4 A thousand ages in your sight
are like an evening gone:
short as the watch that ends the night
before the rising sun.
5 Time, like an ever-rolling stream,
bears all of us away;
we fly forgotten, as a dream
dies at the opening day.
6 Our God, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come,
remain our guard while troubles last,
and our eternal home. Scripture: Psalm 90:1-6 Languages: English Tune Title: ST ANNE
Our God, our help in ages past

O What Their Joy and Their Glory Must Be
Author: Peter Abelard, 1079-1142; John M. Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #480 (1957) Topics: All Saints Day Lyrics: 1 O what their joy and their glory must be,
Those endless Sabbaths the blessèd ones see;
Crowns for the valiant, to weary ones rest;
God shall be All, and in all ever blessed.
2 Truly Jerusalem name we that shore:,
"Vision of Peace," that brings joy evermore;
Wish and fulfillment can severed be ne'er,
Nor the thing prayed for come short of the prayer.
3 There, where no troubles distraction can bring,
We the sweet anthems of Zion shall sing;
While for Thy grace, Lord, their voices of praise
Thy blessèd people shall evermore raise.
4 Low before Him with our praises we fall,
Of whom, and in whom, and through whom are all:
Of whom, the Father; and through whom, the Son;
In whom, the Spirit, with these ever One.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: O QUANTA QUALIA
O What Their Joy and Their Glory Must Be
O what their joy and their glory must be

those endless sabbaths the blesséd ones see;
crown for the valiant, to weary ones rest;
God shall be all, and in all ever blest.
2 What are the Monarch, his court, and his throne?
What are the peace and the joy that they own?
O that the blest ones, who in it have share,
all that they feel could as fully declare.
3 Truly Jerusalem name we that shore,
'Vision of peace', that brings joy evermore.
Wish and fufilment can severed be ne'er,
nor the thing prayed for come short of the prayer.
4 There, where no troubles distraction can bring,
we the sweet anthems of Sion shall sing,
while for thy grace, Lord, their voices of praise
thy blesséd people eternally raise.
5 There dawns no sabbath, no sabbath is o'er,
those sabbath-keepers have one evermore;
one and unending is that triumph-song
which to the angels and us shall belong.
6 Now in the meanwhile, with hearts raised on high,
we for that country must yearn and must sigh;
seeking Jerusalem, dear native land,
through our long exile on Babylon's strand.
7 Low before him with our praises we fall,
of whom, and in whom, and through whom are all;
of whom, the Father; and in whom, the Son;
through whom, the Spirit, with them ever One. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:28 Languages: English Tune Title: O QUANTA QUALIA

O Day of Peace
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr. Hymnal: Voices United #682 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Topics: All Saints Year B First Line: O day of peace that dimly shines Lyrics: 1 O day of peace that dimly shines
through all our hopes and prayers and dreams,
guide us to justice, truth, and love,
delivered from our selfish schemes.
May swords of hate fall from our hands,
our hearts from envy find release,
till by God's grace our warring world
shall see Christ's promised reign of peace.
2 Then shall the wolf dwell with the lamb,
nor shall the fierce devour the small;
as beasts and cattle calmly graze,
a little child shall lead them all.
Then enemies shall learn to love,
all creatures find their true accord;
the hope of peace shall be fulfilled,
for all the earth shall know the Lord. Languages: English Tune Title: JERUSALEM
