The Fifth Part.
1 O Sing ye Saints, you have a Friend Who for you will appear If you are faithful to the end Whilst you do now live here,
2 Christ, when he comes, will clear you all, And wipe all tears away; And ye shall sing, and triumph shall In glorious array:
3 Ye shall the happy Sentence hear, O Come ye blessed Ones, The blessed of my Father dear, And take your glorious Crowns.
4 This being so, ye Saints break forth And say, O Come away, O blessed Judge of Heaven and Earth! O haste, and do not stay.
