Author: Horatio Bolton Nelson, 1823-1913 Hymnal: Lutheran Book of Worship #177 (1978) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Topics: Christian warfare Lyrics: 1 By all your saints in warfare,
For all your saints at rest,
Your holy name, O Jesus,
Forevermore be blest!
For you have won the battle
That they might wear the crown;
And now they shine in glory
Reflected from your throne.
2 (Insert the stanza appropriate to the day.)
3 Then let us praise the Father
And worship God the Son
And sing to God the Spirit,
Eternal Three in One.
Till all the ransomed number
Fall down before the throne,
Ascribing pow'r and glory
And praise to God alone.
Saints and martyr (general):
4 Apostles, prophets, martyrs,
And all the noble throng
Who wear the spotless raiment
And raise the ceaseless song -
For these passed on before us,
We offer praises due
And walking in their footsteps,
Would live our lives for you.
St. Andrew, Apostle:
5 All praise, O Lord, for Andrew,
The first to welcome you,
Whose witness to his brother
Named you Messiah true.
May we, with hearts kept open
To you throughout the year,
Confess to friend and neighbor
Your advent ever near.
St. Thomas, Apostle:
6 All praise for your apostle
Whose short-lived doubtings prove
Your perfect two-fold nature,
And all our depth of love.
We who await your coming
Desire your peace, O Lord;
Grant us true faith to know you,
Made flesh, yet God and Lord.
St. Stephen, Deacon and Martyr:
7 Praise for the first of martyrs
Who saw you ready stand
To help in time of torment,
To plead at God's right hand.
They share with him who, steadfast,
In death their master own,
On earth the faithful witness,
On high the martyr's crown.
St. John, Apostle and Evangelist:
8 For your beloved disciple
Exiled to Patmos' shore,
And for his faithful record,
We praise you evermore.
Praise for the mystic vision
His words to us unfold.
Instill in us his longing
Your glory to behold.
The Holy Innocents, Martyrs:
9 All praise for infant martyrs
Whom your mysterious love
Called early from their warfare
To share your home above.
O Rachel, cease your weeping;
They rest from earthbound cares.
Lord, grant us hearts as guileless
And crowns as bright as theirs.
The Confession of St. Peter:
10 Praise for your great apostle
so eager and so bold,
Thrice falling, yet repentant,
Thrice charged to feed your fold.
Lord, make your pastors faithful
To guard your flock from harm,
And hold them when they waver
With your almighty arm.
The Conversion of St. Paul:
11 All praise for light from heaven
And for the voice of awe,
All praise for glorious visions
The persecutor saw.
O Lord, for Paul's conversion
We bless your name today;
Come, lighten all our darkness,
And guide us on our way.
St. Matthias, Apostle:
12 Lord, your abiding presence
Mysterious made the choice;
For one in place of Judas
The faithful now rejoice.
From all such false apostles
Your holy Church defend,
And by your parting promise
Be with us to the end.

To animate our song.

And all, as faithful branches,
Grow strong in you, the vine.

And wrestle with temptation
Till victors in the strife.

Of light that grows in splendor
Until the perfect day.

And nerve us for such suff'rings
As glorify your name.

That by your truth made guileless,
Your glory we may see.

Your human life declared,
Who, worldly gain forsaking,
Your path of suff'ring shared.
From all unrighteous mammon,
Oh, raise our eyes anew,
That we, whate'er our station,
May rise and follow you.
St. Luke, Evangelist:
19 For that beloved physician
All praise, whose Gospel shows
The healer of the nations,
The one who shares our woes.

Upon our spirits pour,
And with true balm of Gilead
Anoint us evermore.

20 Praise, Lord, for your apostles
Who sealed their faith today;
One love, one hope impelled them
To tread the sacred way.
May we with zeal as earnest
The faith of Christ maintain,
And foll'wing these our brothers,
At length your rest attain. Languages: English Tune Title: KING'S LYNN

Waves before you glory's prize,
Prize of victory.
Seize your armor, gird it on:
Soon the battle will be won;
See! the strife is almost done;
Struggle manfully.

Be no more the slaves of sin,
Strive the victor's palm to win,
Trusting in the Lord:
Gird ye on the armor bright,
Warriors of the King of Light,
Never yield, nor lose by flight
Your divine reward.
3 Jesus conquered when he fell,
Met and vanquished sin and hell;
Now he bids his foll'wers tell
Triumphs of his cross.
Tho' the evil hosts appear,
Who can doubt, or who can fear?
God our strength and shield, is near;
Can we suffer loss?

Hymnal: Christ in Song #637 (1908) Topics: Christ Warfare and Victory; Christ Warfare and Victory; Christ Warfare and Victory; Christ Warfare and Victory; Christ Warfare and Victory; Living His Life Warfare and Victory; Living His Life Warfare and Victory; Living His Life Warfare and Victory First Line: We are living, we are dwelling Lyrics: 1 We are living, we are dwelling,
In a grand and awful time,
In an age on ages telling,
To be living is sublime.
Hark! the waking up of nations,
Gog and Magog to the fray;
Hark! what soundeth? Is creation
Groaning for her latter day?
2 Christian, rouse and arm for conflict,
Nerve thee for the battle field;
Bear the helmet of salvation,
And the mighty gospel shield;
Bind the breastplate firmly on thee,
Take the Spirit's sword in hand;
Boldly, fearlessly, go forth then,
In Jehovah's strength to stand.
3 Wicked spirits gather round thee,
Legions of those foes to God--
Principalities most mighty--
Walk unseen the earth abroad;
They are gath'ring to the battle,
Strengthen'd for the last deep strife;
Christian, arm! be watchful, ready,
Struggle manfully for life.
