O quam gloriosum est regnum, in quo cum Christo gaudent omnes Sancti! Amicti stolis albis, sequuntur Agnum, quocumque ierit. <\/em><\/p>\n

O how glorious is the kingdom in which all the saints rejoice with Christ, clad in robes of white they follow the Lamb wherever he goes.<\/em><\/p>\n

Gaudeamus omnes in Domino diem festum celebrantes sub honore Sanctorum omnium: de quorum solemnitate gaudent angeli, et collaudant Filium Dei. Exsultate iusti in Domino: rectos decet collaudatio. Gloria Patri. Gaudeamus.<\/em><\/p>\n

Let us all rejoice in the Lord celebrating the feast in honour of all the saints, in which solemnity the angels rejoice, while the Archangels praise the Son of God. Ring out your joy to the lord, O you just; for praise is fitting for loyal hearts. Glory be. Let us all rejoice.<\/em><\/p>\n

Hymns<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Who are these like stars appearing <\/em><\/strong>is by Heinrich Theobald Schenk (1656-1727), translated by Frances Elizabeth Cox (1812-1897).<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The first two verses of the hymn are a description of the saints arrayed before God\u2019s throne, asking the question: who are they? Verse three begins to answer the question. So verse four is an answer to the question of who are the saints? What is wonderful about verse four is that it describes people who do not simply submit to God\u2019s will: \u201cwho in prayer full oft have striven with the God they glorified.\u201d In other words, their prayer has often been an intense struggle with God. It\u2019s a powerful description of one aspect of a devout Christian life. Like Jacob, we often wrestle with God about His seeming absence in our anguish; Jesus too cried \u201cmy God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken me?\u201d<\/p>\n

Here is the\u00a0Wakefield Cathedral Choi<\/a>r.<\/p>\n

There is a land of pure delight<\/em><\/strong>. This hymn, by Isaac Watts (1674\u20141758), reminds of why All Saints\u2019 Day and All Souls\u2019 Day are adjacent: only through death can we come to the realms of eternal life. For a Christian, death is painful, but we are consoled by the hope that once we cross Jordan\u2019s stream we shall be forever with our Father in the true Canaan, the Promised Land.<\/p>\n

Here is the tune CAPEL<\/a> by Ralph Vaughn Williams<\/p>\n

For all the saints<\/em><\/strong> is by the Anglican bishop William Walsham How (1823\u20141897), who was a great friend of the poor of his diocese, and was known variously as \u2018the children\u2019s bishop\u2019, \u2018the poor man\u2019s bishop\u2019 and \u2018the omnibus bishop\u2019 (the last referring to his preferred means of travel about his diocese).<\/p>\n

This hymn derives much of its power from its ability to capture the spirit of the Church Militant here on earth, using imagery from the book of Revelation. Vaughan Williams composed the tune SINE NOMINE (\u2018without a name\u2019) for this hymn. It has been suggested that the name of the tune refers to the countless number of saints who are not remembered by name but who are part of the \u2018glorious company\u2019.<\/p>\n
