FOR ALL THE SAINTS (Saturday 5pm, Sunday 9am & Sunday 5pm)
For all the saints who from their labours rest,
who Thee by faith before the world confessed,
Thy name, O Jesu, be for ever blest.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Thou wast their Rock, their fortress, and their might;
Thou, Lord, their captain in the well fought fight;
Thou in the darkness drear, their one true light.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
O may Thy soldiers, faithful true and bold,
fight as the Saints who nobly fought of old,
and win, with them, the victor’s crown of gold.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
O blest Communion, fellowship divine!
We feebly struggle, they in glory shine;
yet all are one in Thee, for all are Thine.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
But lo! There breaks a yet more glorious day;
the saints triumphant rise in bright array;
the King of glory passes on his way.
Alleluia! Alleluia!

BY ALL YOUR SAINTS STILL STRIVING (Sunday 9am)
By all your saints still striving
For all your saints at rest,
Your holy name, O Jesus,
Forevermore be blest!
You rose, our King victorious,
That they might wear the crown
And ever shine in splendour
Reflected from your throne.
Apostles, prophets, martyrs,
and all the noble throng
who wear the spotless raiment
and raise the ceaseless song:
for them and those whose witness
is only known to you
by walking in their footsteps
we give you praise anew.
Then let us praise the Father
And worship God the Son
And sing to God the Spirit,
Eternal Three in One,
Till all the ransomed number
Who stand before the throne,
Ascribe all power and glory
And praise to God alone.

SOUL OF MY SAVIOUR (Saturday 5pm)
Soul of my Saviour sanctify my breast,
Body of Christ, be thou my saving guest,
Blood of my Saviour, bathe me in thy tide,
wash me with waters gushing from thy side.
Strength and protection may Thy passion be;
O blessed Jesus, hear and answer me;
deep in Thy wounds, Lord, hide and shelter me;
so shall I never, never part from thee.
Guard and defend me from the foe malign,
in death's dread moments make me only thine;
call me and bid me come to thee on high
where I may praise thee with thy saints for aye.

COMPANIONS ON THE JOURNEY (Sunday 5pm)
Refrain
We are companions on the journey,
breaking bread and sharing life;
and in the love we bear, is the hope we share
for we believe in the love of our God,
we believe in the love of our God.
No longer strangers to each other,
no longer strangers in God’s house;
we are fed and we are nourished
by the strength of those who care,
by the strength of those who care. Refrain
We have been gifted with each other,
and we are called by the Word of the Lord;
to act with justice, to love tenderly and to
walk humbly with our God,
to walk humbly with our God. Refrain
We will seek and we shall find:
we will knock and the door will be opened;
we will ask and it shall be given
for we believe in the love of our God,
we believe in the love of our God. Refrain

SING WITH ALL THE SAINTS IN GLORY (Saturday 5pm, Sunday 9am & Sunday 5pm)
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.
O 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!
O to enter that bright portal,
see that glowing firmament;
know, with thee, O God Immortal,
"Jesus Christ whom thou has sent!"
