Let saints on earth in concert sing
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #285 (1899) Topics: Church Communion of Saints Lyrics: 1 Let saints on earth in concert sing
With those to glory gone;
For all the servants of our King,
In earth and heaven are one.
One family--we dwell in Him--
One church above, beneath,
Though now divided by the stream--
The narrow stream of death.
2 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
Some happy spirits fly;
And we are to the margin come,
And soon will have to die.
3 E'en now, by faith, we join our hands
With those that went before,
And greet the ransomed blessèd bands
Upon th'eternal shore.
Lord Jesus, be our constant guide;
And when the word is given.
Bid death's cold flood its waves divide,
And land us safe in heaven.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ELLACOMBE

The saints of earth and those above
Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #411 (1893) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Word and the Church Communion of Saints Lyrics: 1 THE saints on earth and those above
But one communion make;
Joined to their Lord, in bonds of love,
All of His grace partake.
2 One family we dwell in Him,
One Church above, beneath;
Though now divided by the stream,--
The narrow stream of death.
3 One army of the living God,
To His commands we bow:
Part of the host have passed the flood,
And part are crossing now.
4 Lo! thousands to their endless home
Are swiftly borne away;
And we are to the margin come,
And soon must launch as they.
5 Lord Jesus! be our constant Guide!
Then, when the word is given,
Bid death’s cold flood its waves divide,
And land us safe in heaven. Languages: English

Who thee by faith before the world confessed,
Thy name, O Jesus, be for ever blest.
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 Light of light.
3 Oh, 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.
4 Oh, blest communion, fellowship divine!
We feebly struggle, they in glory shine;
Yet all are one in thee, for all are thine.
5 But, lo, there breaks a yet more glorious day:
The saints triumphant rise in bright array:
The King of glory passes on his way.
6 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. Scripture: Proverbs 4:18 Languages: English Tune Title: MILITANT

Jesus invites his saints
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Together in Song #505 (1999) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Communion of Saints Lyrics: 1 Jesus invites his saints
to meet around his board;
here pardoned rebels sit, and hold
communion with their Lord.
2 For food he gives his flesh,
calls us to drink his blood;
amazing favour, matchless grace
of our descending God!
3 Our heavenly father calls
Christ and his members one:
we the young children of his love,
and he the first-born Son.
4 We are but several parts
of the same broken bread;
our body hath its several limbs,
but Jesus is the head.
5 Let all our powers be joined
his glorious name to raise;
pleasure and love fill every mind
and every voice be praise.

is Jesus Christ her Lord;
she is his new creation
by water and the word:
from heaven he came and sought her
to be his holy Bride;
with his own blood he bought her,
and for her life he died.
2 Elect from every nation,
yet one o'er all the earth,
her charter of salvation
one Lord, one faith, one birth;
one holy name she blesses,
partakes one holy food,
and to one hope she presses
with every grace endued.
3 Though with a scornful wonder
men see her sore opprest,
by schisms rent asunder,
by heresies distrest;
yet saints their watch are keeping,
their cry goes up, 'How long?'
And soon the night of weeping
shall be the morn of song.
4 'Mid toil and tribulation,
and tumult of her war,
she waits the consummation
of peace for evermore;
till with the vision glorious
her longing eyes are blest,
and the great church victorious
shall be the church at rest.
5 Yet she on earth hath union
with God the Three in One,
and mystic sweet communion
with those whose rest is won:
O happy ones and holy!
Lord, give us grace that we,
like them, the meek and lowly,
on high may dwell with thee. Scripture: Ephesians 4:1-6 Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA

Hebrews 12:18-24
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #499 (1888) Topics: Communion of Saints At Lord's Table; Communion of Saints With each other First Line: Not to the terrors of the Lord Lyrics: 1 Not to the terrors of the Lord,
The tempest, fire, and smoke;
Not to the thunder of that word
Which God on Sinai spoke;--
But we are come to Zion's hill,
The city of our God;
Where milder words declare his will
And speak his love abroad.
2 Behold, the innumerable host
Of angels clothed in light;
Behold the spirits of the just,
Whose faith is turned to sight!
Behold the blest assembly there,
Whose names are writ in heaven!
And God, the Judge of all, declare
Their vilest sins forgiven.
3 The saints on earth, and all the dead,
But one communion make;
All join in Christ, their living Head,
And of his grace partake.
In such society as this
My weary soul would rest;
The man that dwells where Jesus is,
Must be for ever blest. Scripture: Hebrews 12:18 Languages: English Tune Title: UNA

Come, risen Lord, and deign to be our guest
Author: George Wallace Briggs, 1875-1959 Hymnal: Together in Song #524 (1999) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Communion of Saints Lyrics: 1 Come, risen Lord, and deign to be our guest;
no, let us be your guests and with you dine;
at your own table now be manifest
in your own sacrament of bread and wine.
2 We meet as in the upper room they met;
now at the table, blessing, yet you stand:
'This is my body': this you give us yet;
faith still receives the cup as from your hand.
3 One body we, one body who partake,
one church united in communion blessed;
one name we bear, one bread of life we break,
with all your saints on earth and saints at rest.
4 One with each other, Lord, and one in you,
who are one Saviour and one living head;
open our eyes to see with vision true;
be known to us in breaking of the bread. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:16-17 Languages: English Tune Title: SONG 24
Come, risen Lord, and deign to be our guest
