One holy Name she blesses, Partakes one holy food, And to one hope she presses With ev'ry grace endued. 3 'Mid toil and tribulation, And tumult of her war She waits the consummation Of peace forevermore; Till with the vision glorious Her longing eyes are blest, And the great Church victorious Shall be the Church at rest. 4 Yet she on earth hath union With God, the Three-in-One, And with the saints, communion With those whose rest is won. O happy ones and holy! Lord, give us grace that we Like them, the meek and lowly, On high may dwell with thee. Scripture: John 3:5 Used With Tune: AURELIA

Author: Godfrey Thring; Matthew Bridges Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 801 hymnals Topics: All Saints Year A Lyrics: 1 Crown him with many crowns, the Lamb upon his throne; hark! how the heavenly anthem drowns all music but its own! Awake, my soul, and sing of him who died for thee, and hail him as thy matchless King through all eternity. 2 Crown him the Lord of life, who triumphed o'er the grave, and rose victorious in the strife for those he came to save. His glories now we sing, who died and rose on high, who died eternal life to bring, and lives that death may die. 3 Crown him the Lord of peace, whose power a sceptre sways from pole to pole, that wars may cease, absorbed in prayer and praise. His reign shall know no end; and round his piercèd feet fair flowers of Paradise extend their fragrance ever sweet. 4 Crown him the Lord of love; behold his hands and side, rich wounds yet visible above, in beauty glorified. All hail, Redeemer, hail! for thou hast died for me: thy praise shall never, never fail throughout eternity. Used With Tune: DIADEMATA

Worthy deeds are theirs, and wonders, Worthy of the name they bore; We, our joyful praises singing, Honor them forevermore. 2 Faith prevailing, hope unfailing, Loving Christ with single heart, Thus they, glorious and victorious, Bravely bore the martyr's part, By contempt of ev'ry anguish, By unyielding battle done; Victors at the last, they triumph, With the host of angels one. 3 Therefore, you co-heirs of glory, All who dwell with Christ on high, Join to ours your supplication When before Christ we draw nigh, Praying that, this life completed, All its fleeting moments past, By his grace we may be worthy Of eternal bliss at last.

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. Used With Tune: JERUSALEM
