<p>The saints of God! their conflict past,<br>
|
|
And life’s long battle won at last,<br>
|
|
No more they need the shield or sword,<br>
|
|
They cast them down before their Lord:<br>
|
|
O happy saints! forever blest,<br>
|
|
At Jesus feet’ how safe your rest!</p>
|
|
<p>The saints of God! their wand’rings done,<br>
|
|
No more their weary course they run,<br>
|
|
No more they faint, no more they fall,<br>
|
|
No foes oppress, no fears appall:<br>
|
|
O happy saints! forever blest,<br>
|
|
In that dear home how sweet your rest!</p>
|
|
<p>The saints of God! life’s voyage o’er,<br>
|
|
Safe landed on that blissful shore,<br>
|
|
No stormy tempests now they dread,<br>
|
|
No roaring billows lift their head:<br>
|
|
O happy saints! forever blest,<br>
|
|
In that calm haven of your rest!</p>
|
|
<p>The saints of God their vigil keep,<br>
|
|
While yet their mortal bodies sleep,<br>
|
|
Till from the dust they too shall rise<br>
|
|
And soar triumphant to the skies:<br>
|
|
O happy saints! rejoice and sing:<br>
|
|
He quickly comes, your Lord and King!</p>
|
|
<p>O God of saints! to Thee we cry;<br>
|
|
O Savior! plead for us on high;<br>
|
|
O Holy Ghost! our Guide and Friend,<br>
|
|
Grant us Thy grace till life shall end;<br>
|
|
That with all the saints our rest may be<br>
|
|
In that bright paradise with Thee!</p>
