For all Thy saints, a noble throng

Author: Mrs. C. F. Alexander Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #165 (1894) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 For all Thy saints, a noble throng, Who felt by fire and sword, Who soon were called, or waited long, We praise Thy Name, O Lord. 2 For him who left his father's side, Nor lingered by the shore, When, softer than the weltering tide, Thy summons glided o'er; 3 Who stood beside the maiden dead, Who climbed the mount with Thee, And saw the glory round Thy Head, One of Thy chosen three; 4 Who knelt beneath the olive shade, Who drank Thy cup of pain, And passed from Herod's flashing blade To see Thy face again. 5 Lord, give us grace, and give us love, Like him to leave behind Earth's cares and joys, and look above With true and earnest mind. 6 So shall we learn to drink Thy cup, So meek and firm be found, When Thou shalt come to take us up Where Thine elect are crowned. Amen. Topics: Other Feasts and Fasts St. James Languages: English Tune Title: [For all Thy saints a noble throng]
