Let saints on earth in concert sing

(DUNDEE. 8.6.8.6)
1.

Let saints on earth in concert sing
with those whose work is done;
for all the servants of our King
in heav'n and earth are one.

2.

One family, we dwell in him,
one Church, above, beneath;
though now divided by the stream,
the narrow stream of death.

3.

The people of the living God,
to his command we bow:
part of the host have crossed the flood,
and part are crossing now.

4.

E'en now to their eternal home
there pass some spirits blest;
while others to the margin come,
waiting their call to rest.

5.

Jesu, be thou our constant guide;
then, when the word is giv'n,
bid Jordan's narrow stream divide,
and bring us safe to heav'n.

This hymn is in the public domain.
