And one was a doctor, and one was a queen, and one was a shepherdess on the green: they were all of them saints of God – and I mean, God helping, to be one too. 2 They loved their Lord so dear, so dear, and his love made them strong; and they followed the right, for Jesus’ sake, the whole of their good lives long. And one was a soldier, and one was a priest, and one was slain by a fierce wild beast: and there’s not any reason – no, not the least, why I shouldn’t be one too. 3 They lived not only in ages past, there are hundreds of thousands still, the world is bright with the joyous saints who love to do Jesus’ will. You can meet them in school, or in lanes, or at sea, in church, or in trains, or in shops, or at tea, for the saints of God are just folk like me, and I mean to be one too.

Author: Richard Meux Benson, 1824-1915 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #797 (2010) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Saints' and Other Holy Days St. Michael and All Angels Lyrics: 1 Praise to God who reigns above binding earth and heaven in love; all the armies of the sky worship his dread sovereignty. 2 Seraphim his praises sing, cherubim on fourfold wing, thrones, dominions, princes, powers, marshalled might that never cowers. 3 Speeds the archangel from his face, bearing messages of grace; angel hosts his words fulfil, ruling nature by his will. 4 Yet on man thy joy to wait, all that bright celestial state, for in Man their Lord they see, Christ, the incarnate deity. 5 On the throne their Lord who died sits in Manhood glorified; where his people faint below angels count it joy to go. 6 O the depths of joy divine, thrilling through those orders nine, when the lost are found again, when the banished come to reign! 7 Now in faith, in hope, in love, we will join the choirs above, praising, with the heavenly host, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

Stars of the morning, so gloriously bright

Author: Joseph the Hymnographer, died 883; John Mason Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #798 (2010) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Saints' and Other Holy Days St. Michael and All Angels Lyrics: 1 Stars of the morning, so gloriously bright, filled with celestial resplendence and light, these that, where night never followeth day, raise the Trisagion ever and aye: 2 these are thy counsellors, these dost thou own, Lord God of Sabaoth, nearest thy throne; these are thy ministers, these dost thou send, help of the helpless ones, us to defend. *3 These keep the guard amid Salem's dear bowers; thrones, principalities, virtues, and powers; where, with the living ones, mystical four, cherubim, seraphim bow and adore. 4 'Who like the Lord?' thunders Michael the Chief; Raphael, 'the Cure of God', comforteth grief; and, as at Nazareth, prophet of peace, Gabriel, 'the Light of God', bringeth release. 5 Then, when the earth was first poised in mid-space, then, when the planets first sped on their race, then, when were ended the six days’ employ, then all the Sons of God shouted for joy. 6 Still let them succor us; still let them fight, Lord of angelic hosts, battling for right; till, where their anthems they ceaselessly pour, we with the angels may bow and adore.

Let all thy days till life shall end, whate'er he send, be filled with praise. Languages: English Tune Title: DARWALLS' 148TH
