By All Your Saints in Warfare

Wismar, b. 1946 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 96 hymnals Lyrics: 1 By all Your saints in warfare, For all Your saints at rest, Your holy name, O Jesus, Forevermore be blest! For You have won the battle That they might wear the crown; And now they shine in glory Reflected from Your throne. 2 Insert the stanza appropriate to the day. 3 Then let us praise the Father And worship God the Son And sing to God the Spirit, Eternal Three in One, Till all the ransomed number Fall down before the throne, Ascribing pow'r and glory And praise to God alone. St. Mark, Evangelist: 15 For Mark, O Lord, we praise You, The weak by grace made strong, Whose labors and whose Gospel Enrich our triumph song. May we, in all our weakness, Reflect Your servant life And follow in Your footsteps, Enduring cross and strife. St. Philip and St. James, Apostles: 16 We praise You, Lord, for Philip, Blest guide to Greek and Jew, And for young James the faithful, Who heard and followed You. O grant us grace to know You, The way, the truth, the life, To wrestle with temptation, To triumph in the strife. St. Barnabas, Apostle: 17 For Barnabas we praise You, Who kept Your law of love And, leaving earthly treasures, Sought riches from above. O Christ, our Lord and Savior, Let gifts of grace descend, That Your true consolation May through the world extend. The Nativity of St. John the Baptist: 18 We praise You for the Baptist, Forerunner of the Word, Our true Elijah making A highway for the Lord. The last and greatest prophet, He saw the dawning ray Of light that grows in splendor Until the perfect day. St. Peter and St. Paul, Apostles: 19 We praise You for Saint Peter; We praise You for Saint Paul; They taught both Jew and Gentile That Christ is all in all. To cross and sword they yielded And saw Your kingdom come; O God, these two apostles Reached life through martyrdom. St. Mary Magdalene: 20 All praise for Mary Magdalene, Whose wholeness was restored By You, her faithful master, Her Savior and her Lord. On Easter morning early A word from You sufficed; For she was first to see You, Her Lord, the risen Christ. St. James the Elder, Apostle: 21 O Lord, for James we praise You, Who fell to Herod's sword; He drank the cup of suff'ring And thus fulfilled Your word. Lord, curb our vain impatience For glory and for fame, Equip us for such suff'rings As glorify Your name. St. Mary, Mother of Our Lord: 22 We sing with joy of Mary, Whose heart with awe was stirred When, youthful and astonished, She heard the angel's word. Yet she her voice upraises To magnify God's name, As once for our salvation Your mother she became. St. Bartholomew, Apostle: 23 All praise for him whose candor Through all his doubt You saw When Philip at the fig tree Disclosed You in the law. Discern, beneath our surface, O Lord, what we can be, That by Your truth made guileless, Your glory we may see. The Martyrdom of St. John the Baptist: 24 (protected by copyright) St. Matthew, Apostle and Evangelist: 25 Praise, Lord, for him whose Gospel Your human life declared, Who, worldly gain forsaking, Your path of suff'ring shared. From all unrighteous mammon, O raise our eyes anew That we in our vocation May rise and follow You. St. Luke, Evangelist: 26 For that belov'd physician All praise, whose Gospel shows The Healer of the nations, The one who shares our woes. Your wine and oil, O Savior, Upon our spirits pour, And with true balm of Gilead Anoint us evermore. St. James of Jerusalem: 27 (protected by copyright) St. Simon and St. Jude, Apostles: 28 Praise, Lord, for Your apostles, Saint Simon and Saint Jude, One love, one hope impelled them To tread the way, renewed. May we with zeal as earnest The faith of Christ maintain, Be bound in love together, And life eternal gain.
