closing thunders,
saints shall stand
before the throne!

104. All praise
to our redeeming Lord,
who joins us by his grace,
and bids us,
each to each restored,
together seek his face.

105. He bids us
build each other up;
and, gathered into one,
to our high calling’s
glorious hope
we hand in hand go on.

106. And if our fellowship below
in Jesus be so sweet,
what height of rapture
shall we know
when round his throne
we meet!

107. Our Father, who art in
heaven,
hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come,
thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day
our daily bread.

108. And forgive us our
trespasses,
as we forgive those
who trespass against us.
And lead us not
into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
and the power,

110. The church’s one
foundation
is Jesus Christ our
Lord;
we are his new creation
by water and the
Word;

111. from heaven he came
and
sought us
that we might ever be
his living servant
people,
by his own death set
free.

112. Called forth
from every nation,
yet one o’er all the
earth;
our charter of salvation:
one Lord, one faith,
one birth.

113. One holy name
professing,
and at one table fed,
one hope always
pressing,
by Christ’s own Spirit
led.

114. Though with a
scornful wonder
the world sees us
oppressed,
by schisms rent asunder,
by heresies distressed,

115. yet saints their watch
are keeping;
their cry goes up,
“How long?”
But soon the night
of weeping
shall be the morn of
song.

116. Mid toil and tribulation,
and tumult of our war,
we wait the
consummation
of peace forevermore;

117. till, with the vision
glorious
our longing eyes are
blest,
and the great church
victorious
shall be the church at
rest.

118. We now on earth have
union
with God the Three in
One,
and share through faith
communion
with those whose rest is
won.

119. Oh happy ones, and holy!
Lord, give us grace
that we
like them, the meek
and lowly,
on high may dwell with
thee.
