(\'For all the saints\')
For All Saints Day - Nov. 1st.
*******
Shine bright you saints, by Christ you sanctified
Redeemed by Him, for you he suffered, died
And rose again, to Him be full allied
Alleluia, Alleluia!
Through trials and troubles, serving for His sake
All believers unto Him He does take
A people for His glory He does make
Alleluia, Alleluia!
Assist us by your grace, Spirit impart
Your good gifts to us, fill us every part
To follow you, engaging all our heart
Alleluia, Alleluia!
For your plan to change us to your image
Empower, grant us faith, love, and courage
Blessed be we with a goodly heritage
Alleluia, Alleluia!
By grace we members of our Captain\'s band
All brought about by His almighty hand
We saved and redeemed out of every land
Alleluia, Alleluia!
Victorious Light, dawn ever on our sight
And chase away all gloominess and night
Your saints, your servants, shining always bright
Alleluia, Alleluia!
Inspire us with your hope, to carry on
And by faithful saints, before us have gone
\'Til all shall meet up, all one in your Son
Alleluia, Alleluia!
Gone sorrow, pain, all death and mourning o\'er
When all gathered on the eternal shore
No evil, we with you for evermore
Alleluia, Alleluia!
