New English Seventh Day Adventist Hymnal

Hymn 421 FOR ALL THE SAINTS Lyrics

1
For all the saints
Who from their labors rest,
Who Thee by faith
Before the world confessed.
Thy name, O Jesus,
Be forever blest.
Alleluia!
Alleluia!

2
Thou wast their Rock,
Their Fortress and their Might;
Thou, Lord, their Captain
In the wellfought fight;
Thou, in the darkness drear,
Their one true Light.
Alleluia!
Alleluia!

3
O may Thy soldiers,
Faithful, true, and bold,
Fight as the saints
Who nobly fought of old,
And win with them
The victor’s crown of gold.
Alleluia!
Alleluia!

4
And when the strife is fierce,
The warfare long,
Steals on the ear
The distant triumph song,
And hearts are brave again,
And arms are strong.
Alleluia!
Alleluia!

5
From earth’s wide bounds,
From ocean’s farthest coast,
Thro’ gates of pearl
Streams in the countless host,
Singing to Father,
Son, and Holy Ghost,
Alleluia!
Alleluia!
