Hymn

Let saints on earth in concert sing

Metre C.M.

Let saints on earth in concert sing

With those whose work is done;

For all the servants of our King

In heav'n and earth are one.

One family, we dwell in Him,

One Church, above, beneath;

Though now divided by the stream,

The narrow stream of death.

One army of the living God,

To His command we bow;

Part of the host have crossed the flood,

And part are crossing now.

E'en now to their eternal home

There pass some spirits blest;

While others to the margin come,

Waiting their call to rest.

Jesus, be Thou our constant Guide;

Then, when the word is given,

Bid Jordan's narrow stream divide,

And bring us safe to heaven.
