The saints of old from labours rest
Secure, in Christ The King
Believed by faith they’d rise so blessed
Life’s endless song to sing
Their race of truth, in Jesus won
Through grace, no more to die
Supreme to reign with Christ God’s Son
And ride the Wind on high
Now saints today must understand
To walk through Heaven’s door
Need first to serve; in Jesus’ hand
Like those who’ve gone before
To keep ourselves from darkest hell
We must be born again
The Holy Ghost who’s come to dwell
Inside must surely reign
Not one of us can stand-alone
Who tries, will always fail
All generations judge their own
Where many land in jail
But in God’s house, will judgement start
Through gifts the saints receive
Through Jesus’ Flame within the heart
He’ll purge and make believe
God’s saints are those who heed His call
No matter who we were!
When change has taught us not to fall
And nothing can deter
With ancient saints who’ve served the Lord
The new; that seek His face
Both side by side, in one accord
We’ll reach our promised place…
