For all the saints who from their labors rest

Author: William Walsham How, 1823-97 Hymnal: Together in Song #455 (1999) Meter: 10.10.10 with alleluias Topics: Consummation in Christ Lyrics: 1 For all the saints who from their labors rest, who to the world their Lord by faith confessed, your name, O Jesus, be for ever blessed. Hallelujah, hallelujah! 2 You were their rock, their fortress and their might, you were their captain in the well fought fight; in deepest darkness still their one true light. Hallelujah, hallelujah! 3 So may your servants, faithful, true, and bold, fight as the saints who nobly fought of old, and win, with them, the victor's crown of gold. Hallelujah, hallelujah! 4 O blest communion, fellowship divine! We feebly struggle, they in glory shine, all yours, all joined in unity divine. Hallelujah, hallelujah! 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. Hallelujah, hallelujah! 6 The golden evening brightens in the west; soon, soon to faithful warriors comes their rest, the peaceful calm of paradise the blest. Hallelujah, hallelujah! 7 But see, there breaks a yet more glorious day; the saints triumphant rise in bright array; the King of glory calls passes on his way. Hallelujah, hallelujah! 8 From earth's wide bounds and ocean's farthest shore, through heaven's gate the holy people pour; the Three-in-One for ever they adore. Hallelujah, hallelujah!

Author: Timothy Rees, 1874-1939 Hymnal: Together in Song #153 (1999) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Consummation in Christ Lyrics: 1 God is love, let heav'n adore him; God is love, let earth rejoice; let creation sing before him, and exalt him with one voice. God, who laid the earth's foundation, he who spread the heavens above, and who breathes through all creation God is love, eternal Love. 2 God is love, and gently enfolding all the world in one embrace, with unfailing grasp is holding every child of every race. And when human hearts are breaking under sorrow's iron rod, then they find that selfsame aching deep within the heart of God. 3 God is love, and, though with blindness sin afflicts our human hearts, God's eternal lovingkindness holding, guiding, grace imparts. Sin and death and hell shall never o'er us final triumph gain; God is love, so love for ever o'er the universe must reign.
