For all the saints who from their labors rest,
Who You by faith before the world confessed;

O blest communion, fellowship divine!
We feebly struggle, they in glory shine;
Yet all are one within your great design.

But lo! There breaks a yet more glorious day;
The Saints triumphant in their bright array;
The King of glory passes on His way.

From earth's wide bounds, from ocean's farthest coast,
Through gates of Heav’n streams in the countless host,
Singing to the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
Alleluia, Alleluia!

whose is the praise but his?

Recessional Hymn

Sing with All the Saints in Glory

Verse 1
Sing with all the saints in glory, Sing the resurrection song!
Death and sorrow, earth's dark story, To the former days belong.
All around the clouds are breaking, Soon the storms of time shall cease;
In God's likeness people walking, Know the everlasting peace!Verse 2
Life eternal! O what wonders Crowd on faith; what joy unknown,
When, amid earth's closing thunders, Saints shall stand before the throne!
Oh, to enter that bright portal, See that glowing firmament,
Know, with you, O God immortal, Jesus Christ whom you have sent
