FOR ANY SAINT'S DAY
Bishop R. Mant, 1776–1848.
FOR all thy Saints, O Lord,
Who strove in thee to live,
Who followed thee, obeyed, adored
Our grateful hymn receive.
2 For all thy Saints, O Lord,
Accept our thankful cry,
Who counted thee their great reward,
And strove in thee to die.
3 They all in life and death,
With thee their Lord in view.
Learned from thy Holy Spirit's breath
To suffer and to do.
4 For this thy name we bless,
And humbly beg that we
May follow them in holiness,
And live and die in thee;
5. With them the Father, Son,
And Holy Ghost to praise,
As in the ancient days was done,
And shall through endless days.
Amen.
