Let saints on earth in concert sing
Charles Wesley (1759) • English
Primary Scripture: Joshua 3:14-17
Verse 1
Let saints on earth in concert sing with those whose work is done; for all the servants of our King in heaven and earth are one.
Verse 2
One family, we dwell in him, one church, above, beneath; though now divided by the stream, the narrow stream of death.
Verse 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.
Verse 4
E'en now to their eternal home there pass some spirits blest; while others to the margin come, waiting their call to rest.
Verse 5
Jesu, be thou our constant guide; then, when the word is given, bid Jordan's narrow stream divide, and bring us safe to heaven.
