Sing with all the saints in glory, sing the resurrection song! Death and sorrow, earth's dark story, to the former days belong.
All around the clouds are breaking, soon the storms of time shall cease; in God's likeness we, awaking, know the everlasting peace.
what glory, far exceeding all that eye has yet perceived! Holiest hearts, for ages pleading, never that full joy conceived.
God has promised, Christ prepares it, there on high our welcome waits. Every humble spirit shares it; Christ has passed th'eternal gates.
Life eternal! heaven rejoices; Jesus lives, who once was dead. Join we now the deathless voices; child of God, lift up your head!
Patriarchs from the distant ages, saints all longing for their heaven, prophets, psalmists, seers, and sages, all await the glory given.
Life eternal! O what wonders crowd on faith; what joy unknown, when, amidst earth's closing thunders, saints shall stand before the throne!
to enter that bright portal, see that glowing firmament; know, with thee, O God Immortal, "Jesus Christ whom thou has sent!"

All praise to our redeeming Lord, who joins us by his grace, and bids us, each to each restored, together seek his face.
He bids us build each other up; and, gathered into one, to our high calling’s glorious hope we hand in hand go on.
And if our fellowship below in Jesus be so sweet, what height of rapture shall we know when round his throne we meet!
Our Father, who art in heaven,hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

The church’s one foundation is Jesus Christ our Lord; we are his new creation
by water and the Word;
from heaven he came and sought us that we might ever behis living servant people, by his own death set free.
Called forth from every nation, yet one o’er all the earth; our charter of salvation: one Lord, one faith, one birth.
One holy name professing, and at one table fed,one hope always pressing, by Christ’s own Spirit led.
Though with a scornful wonder the world sees us oppressed,by schisms rent asunder,
by heresies distressed,
yet saints their watch are keeping; their cry goes up, “How long?”But soon the night of weeping shall be the morn of song.
Mid toil and tribulation, and tumult of our war,we wait the consummation
of peace forevermore;
till, with the vision glorious our longing eyes are blest,and the great church victorious shall be the church at rest.
We now on earth have union with God the Three in One,and share through faith communion with those whose rest is won.
Oh happy ones, and holy!
Lord, give us grace
that welike them, the meek and lowly, on high may dwell with thee.
