Saints Salvation

Tune: Sine Nomine

('For all the saints')

Revelation 11 v.15-19

For All Saints Day - Nov 1.

*********

The seventh [and final] angel did his trumpet blow

Great voices in heaven did say, This know

The Lord Almighty reigns o'er all, 'tis so

Alleluia, Alleluia!

 

The kingdoms of this world, they are become

The kingdoms of our Lord, all, not just some

Our Lord and His Christ, they now e'er his home

Alleluia, Alleluia!

 

The twenty four elders around God's throne

Rose from their seats, and worshipped Him alone

Sasing, We praise, all kingdoms are your own

Alleluia, Alleluia!

 

You Lord God Almighty, which are, and were

And are to come, none can this stop, deter

You take your great power, reign, we concur

Alleluia, Alleluia!

 

Though nations angry, for you judge rightly

Wrath to the sinful, evil, there shall be

But reward to saints for eternity

Alleluia, Alleluia!

 

Whether small or great, saints who have believed

have salvation form Jesus sure received

They shall share in God's glory thus perceived

Alleluia, Alleluia!

 

But He shall destroy them which do destroy

The earth, defile, deface, with evil ploy

Though His servants shall share His lasting joy

Alleluia, Alleluia!

 

Temple of God opened in heaven, seen

Ark of His covenant there espied keen

Tumultuous sights, they have rarely been

Alleluia, Alleluia!

 

Lightnings and voices, mighty thunderings

Throughout the skies their awesomeness sounding

Earthquake and great hail this even too brings

Alleluia, Alleluia!

    Sometimes its easy to forget the saints future and the saints present, for painfully obvious reasons. So we stick to saints past and dead!

      Thanks Saint CB! All Christian believers are saints really - from being 'sanctified', or 'saint-ified' - being made holy, set apart from sins unto God. Of course, it's onging, and the saying 'Be patient with me; God hasn't finished with me yet'.

        Lowercase ā€œsā€ will suffice, for it is a technicality with a lot of opinions and controversy attached, wheat and tares being the least of them.

          Thanks Gold. A god one yes. I made the same typo (or on purpose?) on a comment!
