- Rejoice in God's gift of hymnody, recorded at Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Michigan during the 2015 Higher Things youth conferences.
1 For all the saints who from their labors rest,
Who Thee by faith before the world confessed,
Thy name, O Jesus, be forever blest.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
2 Thou wast their rock, their fortress, and their might;
Thou, Lord, their captain in the well-fought fight;
Thou, in the darkness drear, their one true light.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
3 Oh, may Thy soldiers, faithful, true, and bold,
Fight as the saints who nobly fought of old
And win with them the victor’s crown of gold!
Alleluia! Alleluia!
4 Oh, blest communion, fellowship divine!
We feebly struggle, they in glory shine;
Yet all are one in Thee, for all are Thine.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
5 And when the fight is fierce, the warfare long,
Steals on the ear the distant triumph song,
And hearts are brave again, and arms are strong.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
6 The golden evening brightens in the west;
Soon, soon to faithful warriors cometh rest;
Sweet is the calm of paradise the blest.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
7 But, lo, there breaks a yet more glorious day:
The saints triumphant rise in bright array;
The King of Glory passes on His way.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
D 8 From earth’s wide bounds, from ocean’s farthest coast,
Through gates of pearl streams in the countless host,
Singing to Father, Son, and Holy Ghost:
Alleluia! Alleluia!

Communion is the most unifying sacrament of all. What a humble sight and sound seeing all these young people at the foot of the cross. Praise be to God
Singing to Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
Alleluia! Alleluia!
I know it is quite off topic but do anyone know a good website to stream newly released series online ?
@Nathan Ivan i would suggest FlixZone. You can find it by googling :)
THIS is what a youth conference should be
AMEN to that!
You can't get anything this spiritually-rich at the theatric churches that seem to have become popular these days. The Gospel and Holy Communion accomplish much more than all the flash and feeling at those.
Yes! The sacraments are eternal and God ordained. Temporary emotional responses are just that, temporary.
The Gospel being preached in its truth and purity, and the Sacraments being rightly administered is essential and vital...all else is optional =)
"We feebly struggle, they in glory shine." Gets me every time. The one verse that prevents me from singing the entire hymn.
You are not the only one. I know exactly what you are saying.
After my Oma’s funeral both my mother and I struggle to sing the entirety of certain hymns. I know that my redeemer lives kills us in the best way if you know what I mean. It is all in glory to God, and love of those now in his house.
These kids don't really know how good they have it to be part of this beautiful ceremony.
That's why Higher Things teaches has these conferences, to teach them.
Was 18 at the time, and I certainly did. Higher Things conferences are where I made some of my best friends to this day. Truly made me realize how important my faith was to me, and wouldn’t trade my experiences for anything.
I know they do. As a parent, and based on what my kids say, I think they may know more than some of the adults in our congregations.
I think they do.
I love how EVERYONE is singing and with gusto too! The WHOLE church is belting out perhaps the most famous (definitely one of) hymn ever! Ralph Vaughn Williams must be smiling.
Mark Ferguson, Amateur Organist he is smiling. !

ABSOLUTELY Sir! This was wonderful!
I have asked that this will be sung at my funeral. We sang it at my mother's funeral and it inspired all who were there. It takes
sorrow to victory in Christ.
I’m thinking the same thing! I love this song.
We always sing this hymn on All Saints Sunday, and I agree that it would be very appropriate for a funeral. It proclaims the Protestant understanding that all who put their faith in trust in Christ are made saints by His blood and righteousness, not by their own good works.
1. For all the saints, who from their labors rest,
who thee by faith before the world confessed,
thy name, O Jesus, be forever blest.
Refrain:
Alleluia, Alleluia!
2. Thou wast their rock, their fortress, and their might;
thou Lord, their captain in the well-fought fight;
thou in the darkness drear, their one true light.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
3. O may thy soldiers, faithful, true, and bold,
fight as the saints who nobly fought of old,
and win with them the victor's crown of gold.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
4. O blest communion, fellowship divine!
We feebly struggle, they in glory shine;
yet all are one in thee, for all are thine.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
5. And when the strife is fierce, the warfare long,
steals on the ear the distant triumph song,
and hearts are brave, again, and arms are strong.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
6.The golden evening brightens in the west;
soon, soon to faithful warriors cometh rest;
sweet is the calm of paradise the blest.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
7. But lo! there breaks a yet more glorious day;
the saints triumphant rise in bright array;
the King of glory passes on his way.
Alleluia, Alleluia!
8. From earth's wide bounds, from ocean's farthest coast,
through gates of pearl streams in the countless host,
singing to Father, Son, and Holy Ghost:
All of that was wonderful praise to our Lord Jesus and his work done on the cross for us! Glory to God!
Higher Things, faithful youth, and this hymn: triple play! Love it!
"All are one in Thee, for all are thine. Alleluia!"
to see the number of young people coming forward to take communion is greatly encouraging. The future of christianity is as solid as ever.. Praise THE LORD...AMEN
No better way to start my day than listening to this glorious song. Alleluia!
Hallelujah! There is nothing so beautiful as God's people singing His praise, particularly the youth. God has a hope and a future for us. Seeing and hearing this makes it easier to see. Thank you for your work in the Gospel, Higher Things.
God is Great
A noble rendition of an inspiring hymn....well done Grand Rapids conference people !!!
Is there anything more beautiful than this hymn and what is happening in this video?
especially the young girls in short shorts receiving the Body of Christ...NOT!
@@seawynd99 “I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.”
― Mahatma Gandhi
@@seawynd99, unless your wife and daughters wear dresses below the knee and cover their heads for worship, please just shut up and stop embarrassing yourself.
Not that it would matter to you, but for others, it helps to understand that this was in the summer, on a college campus where air conditioning was limited. Attendees spend all day in the clothes they put on in the morning.
@@seawynd99 This is a youth Mass. When the pope celebrates Mass in large outdoor settings the young people dress comfortably. Be thankful that the youth go to Holy Communion.
Communion.. all are one in thee.. if your going to profess it, you should think about living it. Hippocrites is what He calls them.
I am weeping as I sing along.
You almost had me fooled - I almost thought that was a Catholic communion! That is a beautiful crucifix, and we are happy our Lutheran brothers believe in the Real Presence. But we must teach Catholics to sing!
Saint Barnabas Parish, Anglican Ordinariate Are you one of the Catholics that dosen't believe Lutherans will burn in hell forever?
Saint Barnabas Parish, Anglican Ordinariate we should also teach those Seventh Day Adventists to sing as well
The Catholics all drink out of the same communion cup, yuck!
The cup is rotated for each person and cleaned so no one exchanges germs. Also the silver content of the cup and the alcohol content make it sanitary. Now if it were grape juice that would be a different story, but Lutherans use wine.
@@averygoodrich2927 Roman Catholics believed that all people are on their own journey to God, especially as enshrined in the teachings of the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council. Lutherans and Catholics celebrated the anniversaries of Augsburg Confession together, have a joint declaration of agreement on Justification, and recently the Pope went to Sweden (I think) to mark the special anniversary of the Reformation. "May [we] all be one."
Thought of this hymn when hearing about what is going on in North Korea.
Thank you! Beautifully done, and I love that even though the song title is what brought me to this page, the video was focused on the most important element of the Mass: receiving Jesus in the Eucharist. Thank you so much!
Its was at a Lutheran protestant church. They dont call it mass there
@@johnrevelation37 Some Lutherans still use the term "mass," but most use other terms, such as "divine service" or "Eucharist" due to theological differences in the understanding of exactly what is occurring in the sacrament.
@@sarco64 Nearly all Lutherans in Europe/ Africa call it the Holy Mass. American Lutherans say Holy Communion or Eucharist because they wanted to fit in better with Protestants centuries ago.
Praise the Lord!!
Channel is a great blessing

W o w
peaceful bliss came from heaven above when connected with god
Watching the video, is not beautiful the number of young people partaking the Lord Supper and singing praise for all our departed love ones who now are enjoying being with the Lord
I know the feeling. I also love hearing the young ones sing, like on Worship Anew, which I watch when I can't make it to church. Every time, I pray for the kids I see there, asking God to keep them in the faith. It's a hard culture to grow up in, and this is not the country it was 30 years ago. So much temptation and unbelief thrown at them.
The nasty reply would be we ARE the gnesio catolico (true catholic), not Roman Catholic. However, such an answer ignores those within the Church of Rome who do indeed belong to Christ who alone truly knows who are His sheep. For Lutherans, the "true presence" of Christ's body and blood do not ignore the reality of bread and wine. How this dual reality (bread and body, wine and blood) can exist, we do not know but it nevertheless is because Christ so stated. That suffices for us. As far as singing, it is merely a matter of having about six hymns at every divine service and examples in adult congregants who sing as Lutherans have sung for the past five centuries. After all, repetitio est mater studiorum.
Great hymn & video - a version with the lyrics would be even better.
We're working on that.
Who was the organist?
bakit ganun iniinuman nila... pasa pasa nalang... di ba nakakahawa ng sakit jan
He's not wiping that cup properly
Are you permitted to receive communion by mouth if desired?
Yes, many do.
Its not even a question of being permited. Receiving it in the mouth has always been the correct manner of recieving our lord. It was only after vatican 2 when people widely recieved it in their hands
@@keytube1012 Many Lutherans prefer in the hand so that they can dip the host into the chalice for health purposes.
@@charleshappold4637 explain to me what "health purposes" you are speaking of, because I did not understand what you meant.
@@keytube1012 Personally I take holy Communion by drinking directly from the chalice or intinction. But understand that some Christians are fearful of the possibility of contagious disease especially during flu season.
Looks like a new religion! Can anyone tell me what religion this is??
This was sung/recorded at a Higher Things youth conference. Higher Things is a Recognized Service Organization of the Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod.
"new religion". Lol.
@@danbale4160 - the Protestant Reformation actually is not "new". Its 502th anniversary happens this year on Oct 31st. You're new
Truly sad how ignorant people have become about church today. But such is this wicked attack on the church today in the Western World. And when will millions stand up for Jesus?
Is it a catholic mass with holy communion ?
No, this was at a Lutheran youth conference.
Nope, couldn't be Roman, the altar doesn't have a wall of candles and crucifix between the celebrant and the people. And the singing...no, no, no...Roman Catholics don't sing like that. I thought, at first, it might be Episcopal, but no altar rail, even in contemporary architecture is there...and the organist was not quite Anglican. However, good singing.
The wall of candles and crucifix became popular in some RC parishes during the time of Pope Benedict in the early 2000s. Common liturgical principals among denominations would go with the look of this church. To me, the true give away of the architecture's deep connection to Lutheran theology is the baptismal font, front and center.
@@splashpont This is actually the chapel at a Calvinist university being used for a Lutheran conference. There are some temporary alterations to the chapel for this conference.
@@karlrovey Nice done, highlighting the centrality of Word and the Two Great Sacraments.
Thought of this hymn today when AG Barr released his highly abbreviated version of the Mueller report. #Resist
