Who are these like stars appearing, these before God s throne who stand? Each a golden crown is wearing; who are all this glorious band? Alleluia! Hark, they sing, praising loud their heav nly King. [Sing to the Lord 424]
2. Who are these of dazzling brightness, these in God s own truth arrayed, clad in robes of purest whiteness, robes whose lustre ne er shall fade, ne er be touched by time s rude hand? Whence come all this glorious band?
3. These are they who have contended for their Saviour s honour long, wrestling on till life was ended, foll wing not the sinful throng; these, who well the fight sustained, triumph through the Lamb have gained.
4. These are they whose hearts were riven, sore with woe and anguish tried, who in prayer full oft have striven with the God they glorified; now, their painful conflict o er, God has bid them weep no more.
5. These, like priests, have watched and waited, off ring up to Christ their will; soul and body consecrated, day and night to serve him still: now in God s most holy place blest they stand before his face. Sing to the Lord 424 Public domain Text: Heinrich T. Schenk, 1719; tr. Frances E. Cox, 1841, 1864 Tune: Geistreiches Gesangbuch, Darmstadt, 1698
