Till we the crown obtain;
And gladly reckon all things loss,
So we may Jesus gain.

The saints above, how great their joys, How bright their glories be.

2 Once they were mourners here below, 4 They marked the footsteps that he
And poured out cries and tears;
They wrestled hard, as we do now,
With sins, and doubts, and fears.

3 I ask them whence their victory came: 5
They, with united breath,
Ascribe their conquest to the Lamb,
Their triumph to his death.

PETERBORO C. M.

His zeal inspired their breast; [trod;
And, following their incarnate God,
Possess the promised rest.

Our glorious Leader claims our praise
For his own pattern given;
While the long cloud of witnesses
Show the same path to heaven.

2 Thou wast their rock, their fortress, and their might;
Thou, Lord, their captain, in the well-fought fight;

Thou, in the darkness drear, their one true light. 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!

4 O blest communion, fellowship divine!
We feebly struggle, they in glory shine;
Yet all are one in thee, for all are thine.

Alleluia!

5 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 !

6 The golden evening brightens in the west;

Soon, soon to faithful warriors cometh rest;

Sweet is the calm of paradise the blest. Alleluia !

7 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 !
