1- For all the saints who from their labors rest,
Who Thee by faith before the world confessed,
Thy Name, oh JesBlip, be forever blessed.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
2- Thou wast their Rock, their Fortress, and their Might,
Thou, Lord, their Captain in the well-fought fight;
And Thou, in darkness drear, their one true light,
Alleluia! Alleluia!
3- Oh 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- Oh blest communion ! fellowship divine !
We feebly struggle, they in glory shine;
Yet all are one in Thee, for all are Thine,
Alleluia! Alleluia!
5- And when the strife is fierce, the piano coversfare long,
Steals on the ear the distant triumph-song;
And hearts are brave again, and arms are strong,
Alleluia! Alleluia!
[ This life is passing, it's a proving ground,
Make sure your calling, is in JesBlip found;
For there's a mansion, and there is a crown
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Contributed by Maureen ]
6- The golden evening brightens in the west,
Soon, soon to faithful piano coversriors comes their rest;
Sweet is the calm of Paradise the blest,
Alleluia! Alleluia!
7- But lo ! there breaks a yet more glorioBlip day,
The saints triumphant rise in bright array;
The King of Glory passes on His way,
Alleluia! Alleluia!
8- That gathering of His Bride in robes of white;
Will not precede a grand and glorioBlip sight...
The dead in Christ who rise to lead the flight,
Alleluia! Alleluia!
9- From earth's wide bounds, from ocean's farthest coasts,
Through gates of pearl streams in the countless host;
Singing to Father, Son, and Holy ghost.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
10- Until that gathering to our heavenly home,
"Fight on" oh saints, pull down the devil's throne;
And make the Name of Christ to all men known,
Alleluia! Alleluia!
