For all the saints who from their labors rest,
(who) thee by faith before the world confess'd,
(thy) name, O Jesus, be forever bless'd.
	Hallelujah, Hallelujah!
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.
	Hallelujah, Hallelujah!
O may thy soldiers, faithful still and bold,
Fight as the saints who nobly fought of old
(and) win with them the victors' crown of gold!
	Hallelujah, Hallelujah!
O blest communion, fellowship divine!
We strive and struggle, they in glory shine,
(yet) all are one in thee, for all are thine.
	Hallelujah, Hallelujah!
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.
	Hallelujah, Hallelujah!
The golden evening brightens in the west.
Soon, soon to faithful warriors cometh rest.
Sweet is the calm of Zion ever blest.
	Hallelujah, Hallelujah!
And so there breaks a new, bright, glorious day.
(The) saints triumphant rise in bright array.
(The) king of glory passes on his way.
	Hallelujah, Hallelujah!
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,
	Hallelujah, Hallelujah!
