Author: Horatio Nelson Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #48 (1926) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: All Saint' Day Lyrics: 1 From all Thy saints in warfare, For all Thy saints at rest, To Thee, O blessed Jesus, All praises be addressed; Thou, Lord, didst win the battle, That they might conqu'rors be; Their crowns of living glory Are lit with rays from Thee. 2 Praise for the first of martyrs, Who saw Thee ready stand To aid in midst of torments, To plead at God's right hand. Share we with him, if summoned By death our Lord to own, On earth the faithful witness, In heav'n the martyr crown. 3 Apostles, prophets, martyrs, And all the sacred throng, Who wear the spotless raiment, Who raise the ceaseless song, For these, passed on before us, Saviour, we Thee adore, And, walking in their footsteps, Would serve Thee more and more. 4 Then praise we God the Father, And praise we God the Son, And God the Holy Spirit, Eternal Three in One; Till all the ransomed number Fall down before the throne, And honor, power, and glory Ascribe to God alone.
