Let saints on earth in concert sing
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 176 hymnals Topics: Mothering Sunday Lyrics: 1 Let saints on earth in concert sing
With those whose work is done;
For all the servants of our King
In earth and heaven are one.
2 One family, we dwell in him,
One Church, above, beneath;
Though now divided by the stream,
The narrow stream of death.
3 One army of the living God,
To his command we bow;
Part of his host has crossed the flood,
And part is crossing now.
4 E'en now to their eternal home
There pass some spirits blest,
While others to the margin come,
Waiting their call to rest.
5 Jesu, be thou our constant Guide;
Then, when the word is given,
Bid Jordan's narrow stream divide,
And bring us safe to heaven. Used With Tune: DUNDEE

As ye journey sweetly sing;

In the way the fathers trod;
They are happy now, and we
Soon their happiness shall see.

On the borders of your land:
Jesus Christ your Father's Son,
Bids you undismayed go on.

Sion's city is in sight;
There our endless home shall be,
There our Lord in glory see.

Whose hearts have Christ confest,
Who by his Cross have found their life,
And 'neath his yoke their rest.

When they together sing;
And strong the prayers that bow the ear
Of heaven's eternal King.
3 Christ to their homes giveth his peace,
And makes their loves his own:
But ah, what tares the evil one
Hath in his garden sown!
4 Sad were our lot, evil this earth,
Did not its sorrows prove
The path whereby the sheep may find
The fold of Jesu's love.

How all their pain is good;
And death itself cannot unbind
Their happy brotherhood. Used With Tune: BINCHESTER

Whom Jesus loves so well,
And to his glory year by year
Thy praise and honour tell?
2 Thee did he choose from whom to take
True flesh, his flesh to be;
In it to suffer for our sake,
And by it make us free.
3 O wondrous depth of love divine,
That he should bend so low;
And, Mary, O what joy was thine
The Saviour's love to know.
4 Joy to be Mother of the Lord,
Yet thine the truer bliss,
In every thought and deed and word
To be for ever his.
5 Now in the realm of life above
Close to thy Son thou art,
While on thy soul glad streams of love
Flow from his sacred heart.
6 Jesu, the Virgin's holy Son,
Praise we thy Mother blest;
Grant when our earthly course is run,
Life with the saints at rest. Used With Tune: BEATITUDO
Shall we not love thee, Mother dear
