1 For all the Saints, who from their labors rest,
Who Thee by faith before the world confess'd,
Thy Name, O Jesus, be forever blest.
Alleluia, alleluia!
2 Thou wast their Rock, their Fortress, and their Might:
Their strength and solace in the well-fought fight;
Thou, in the darkness drear, the one true light.
Alleluia, alleluia!
3 O blest communion, fellowship divine!
We feebly struggle, they in glory shine;
Yet all are one in Thee, for all are Thine.
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,
Through gates of pearl streams in the countless host,
Singing to Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
Alleluia, alleluia!
