The Saints on Earth and Those Above

Author: Charles Wesley; Isaac Watts Appears in 78 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The saints on earth and those above But one communion make; Joined to their Lord in bonds of love, All of His grace partake. 2 One family, we dwell in Him, One Church above, beneath; Tho' now divided by the stream, The narrow stream of death. 3 One army of the living God, To His command we bow; Part of the host have crossed the flood, And part are crossing now. 4 Lo! thousands to their endless home Are swiftly borne away; And we are to the margin come And soon must launch as they. 5 Lord Jesus, be our constant Guide; Then, when the word is given, Bid death’s flood its waves divide And land us safe in heaven. Amen. Topics: The Church Communion of Saints Scripture: Hebrews 12:22-24 Used With Tune: ST. FLAVIAN

And, having thee, on earth is naught that I can yet desire. 4 Though flesh and heart should faint and fail, the Lord will ever be the strength and portion of my heart, my God eternally. 5 To live apart from God is death, 'tis good his face to seek; my refuge is the living God, his praise I long to speak.
