We Sing for All the Unsung Saints
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr. b. 1944 Hymnal: Lutheran Service Book #678 (2006) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 We sing for all the unsung saints,
That countless, nameless throng,
Who kept the faith and passed it on
With hope steadfast and strong
Through all the daily griefs and joys
No chronicles record,
Forgetful of their lack of fame,
But mindful of their Lord.
2 Though uninscribed with date or place,
With title, rank, or name,
As living stones their stories join
To form a hallowed frame
Around the myst'ry in their midst:
The Lamb once sacrificed,
The Love that wrested life from death,
The wounded, risen Christ.
3 So we take heart from unknown saints
Bereft of earthly fame,
Those faithful ones who have received
A more enduring name:
For they reveal true blessing comes
When we our pride efface
And offer back our lives to be
The vessels of God's grace. Scripture: Hebrews 11 Languages: English Tune Title: ALL SAINTS NEW

The Son of God Goes Forth to War
Author: Reginald Heber, 1783-1826 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #183 (1978) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 The Son of God goes forth to war
A kingly crown to gain.
His blood-red banner streams afar;
Who follows in his train?
Who best can drink his cup of woe,
Triumphant over pain;
Who patient bears his cross below -
He follows in his train.
2 The martyr first, whose eagle eye
Could pierce beyond the grave,
Who saw his master in the sky
And called on him to save.
Like him, with pardon on his tongue
In midst of mortal pain,
He prayed for those who did the wrong -
Who follows in his train?
3 A glorious band, the chosen few,
On whom the Spirit came,
Twelve valiant saints; their hope they knew
And mocked the cross and flame.
They met the tyrant's brandished steel,
The lion's gory mane;
They bowed their necks the death to feel -
Who follows in their train?
4 A noble army, girls and boys,
With men and women saved,
Around the Savior's throne rejoice,
In robes of light arrayed.
They climbed the steep ascent of heav'n
Through peril, toil, and pain.
O God, to us may grace be giv'n
To follow in their train! Topics: Lesser Festivals; Lesser Festivals; Saints' Days St. Stephen, Deacon and Martyr; Christian warfare Languages: English Tune Title: ALL SAINTS NEW
