O, King of saints, we give Thee praise and glory

Thomson Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #177 (1894) Meter: 11.10 Topics: All Saints Lyrics: 1 O King of saints, we give Thee praise and glory
For the bright cloud of witnesses unseen,
Whose names shine forth like stars, in sacred story,
Guiding our steps to realms of light serene;
2 And for Thy hidden saints, our praise adoring,
Fount of all sanctity, to Thee we yield,
Who in Thy treasure-house on high, art storing
Jewels who lustre was, on earth, concealed.
3 Thine arm sustained them all in conflict mortal
With sin, the world, and all the powers of hell;
Thy hand hath oped for all, the shining portal
To realms where peace and joy forever dwell.
4 There they are throned and white-robed elders, casting
Before the King of kings their crowns of gold;
And there are crowns and mansions everlasting,
And palms and harps for multitudes untold.
5 Though, in Thy service, we too oft have slumbered,
Like the ten virgins, foolish ones and wise;
Yet with Thy saints, may we at last be numbered,
And at Thy call with burning lamps arise.
Amen.

The word of blessing give,
And let us rest beneath Thy feet,
Where saints and angels live.

of every race and land,
redeem the whole creation
with your almighty hand;
where hate and fear divide us
and bitter threats are hurled,
in love and mercy guide us
and heal our strife-torn world.
2 From search for wealth and power
and scorn of truth and right,
from trust in bombs that shower
destruction through the night,
from pride of race and nation
and blindness to your way,
deliver every nation,
eternal God, we pray.
3 Give strength to those who labour
that all may find release
from fear of rattling sabre,
from dread of war's increase;
when hope and courage falter,
your still small voice be heard:
with faith that none can alter,
your servants undergird.
4 Keep bright in us the vision
of days when war shall cease,
when hatred and division
give way to love and peace,

when peace on earth shall reign
and Christ shall rule victorious

a vision of the world to come:
a radiant city filled with light,
where you with us will make your home;
where neither grief nor pain shall dwell,
since former things have passed away,
and where they need no sun nor moon;
your glory lights eternal day.
2 Our cities wear great shrouds of pain;
beneath our gleaming towers of wealth
the homeless crouch in rain and snow,
the poor cry out for strength and health.
Youth’s hope is dimmed by ignorance;
unwilling, workers idled stand;
indifference walks unheeding by
as hunger stretches out its hand.
3 Come, Lord, make real John’s vision fair;
come, dwell with us, make all things new;
we try in vain to save our world
unless our help shall come from you.
Come, strengthen us to live in love;
bid hatred, greed, injustice cease.

let all our cities shine forth peace. Tune Title: CANDLER

Og hart du stred med Døden,
Dig horte Gud i Himlens Slot,
Han saa at Mørket ei var godt,
Og frelste dig i Nøden;
Herlig, Herlig
Slukte Naaden
Kirke-Graaden,
Gid vor Tunge
Værdig kunde det udsjunge!
2 Frem Luther stod, en Kjæmpe bold,
Ham Gud gav Troens stærke Skjold,
Og Ordets Sværd det gjæve;
Op slog han Helligdommens Bog,
I Ledingsfærd mod Løgnen drog,
Og Mørkets Skaver bæve.
Herren, Herren
Med han strider,
Natten lider,
Dagen rinder,
Vei til Himmerig du finder.
3 Os hvilte Herrens Øie paa,
Og Lysets blide Straaler naa
Ud over Fjeld og Dale;
Vankundigt Folket gik med Taal,
Men paa sit eget Tungemaal
Det nu fornam Guds Tale,
Eia! Eia!
Kirkens Hyrde,
Tog vor Byrde,
Kalder, bringer
Os til Gud paa Aandens Vinger.
4 Nu hjælpe Gud, som hjalp os hid,
At vi fuldende Troens Strid
I Luthers fodspor glade!
Hjælp Gud, i Lys og Løn vi maa
Paa Sandheds Vei retsindig gaa,
Og aldrig der forlade!
Velsign! Velsign
Folk og Rige!
Høit opstige
Det med Hæder
Bed dit Lys i Dyd og Glæder!

O Holy City, Seen of John
Author: Walter Russell Bowie Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #613 (1995) Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.6 Topics: Year B All Saints Lyrics: 1 O holy city, seen of John,
where Christ, the Lamb, does reign,
within whose foursquare walls shall come
no night, nor need, nor pain,
And where the tears are wiped from eyes
that shall not weep again.
2 O shame to us who rest content
while lust and greed for gain
in street and shop and tenement
wring gold from human pain,
And bitter lips in blind despair
cry “Christ has died in vain!”
3 Give us, O God, the strength to build
the city that has stayed
too long a dream, whose laws are love,
whose ways are your own ways,
And where the sun that blazes
is your grace for all our days.
4 Already in the mind of God
that city is prepared:
oh, how its splendor challenges
the souls that greatly dare,
Yes, bids us seize the whole of life
and build its glory there. Scripture: Revelation 21, 22:1-5 Languages: English Tune Title: MORNING SONG
O Holy City, Seen of John
Of the Father's Love Begotten
Author: John Mason Neale; Aurelius Clemens Prudentius Hymnal: Voices United #61 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7.7.7 Topics: All Saints Year B Lyrics: 1 Of the Father's love begotten,
ere the worlds began to be,
Christ is Alpha and Omega,
Christ the source, the ending he,
of the things that are and have been,
and that future years shall see,
evermore and evermore.
2 At his word the worlds were framed.
He commanded, it was done:
heaven and earth and depths of ocean
in their threefold order one;
all that grows beneath the shining
of the moon and burning sun,
evermore and evermore.
3 O that birth for ever blessèd!
When the Virgin, full of grace,
by the Holy Ghost conceiving,
bare the Saviour of our race,
and the babe, the world's redeemer,
first revealed his sacred face,
evermore and evermore.
4 This is he whom seers in old time
chanted of with one accord,
whom the voices of the prophets
promised in their faithful word;
now he shines, the long-expected;
let creation praise its Lord,
evermore and evermore.
5 O ye heights of heaven, adore him;
angel hosts, his praises sing;
powers, dominions, bow before him,
and extol our God and King;
let no tongue on earth be silent,
every voice in concert ring,
evermore and evermore.
6 Christ, to thee with God most blessèd,
and, O Holy Ghost, to thee,
hymn and chant and high thanksgiving,
and unwearied praises be,
honour, glory, and dominion
and eternal victory,
evermore and evermore. Languages: English Tune Title: DIVINUM MYSTERIUM

O Holy City, Seen of John
Author: Walter Russell Bowie Hymnal: Voices United #709 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.6 Topics: All Saints Year B Lyrics: 1 O holy city, seen of John,
where Christ, the Lamb, doth reign,
within whose foursquare walls shall come
no night, nor need, nor pain,
and where the tears are wiped from eyes
that shall not weep again!
2 Hark, now from men whose lives are held
more cheap than merchandise,
from women struggling sore for bread,
from little children's cries,
there swells the sobbing human plaint
that bids thy walls arise.
3 O shame to us who rest content
while lust and greed for gain
in street and shop and tenement
wring gold from human pain,
and bitter lips in blind despair cry,
"Christ hath died in vain!"
4 Give us, O God, the strength to build
the city that hath stood
too long a dream, whose laws are love,
whose ways is brotherhood,
and where the sun that shineth is
God's grace for human good.
5 Already in the mind of God
that city riseth fair.
Lo, how its splendour challenges
the souls that greatly dare,
yea, bids us seize the whole of life
and build its glory there! Languages: English Tune Title: MORNING SONG
