To God's Saints
--By Sara Anne Kane

The Lord our God
Suffered and Died,--
That to our souls
His Blood could apply.

He washes us clean,--
Whiter than snow,--
Makes our faces shine
As the sun doth glow.

He lifts us up
When our limbs hang low,--
Gives us strength for each day
As to Him we pray.

Take courage,--look up!
Our redemption draweth nigh!
Some day soon
We'll meet Him in the sky!

Let us press on,
In our armors fully clad,--
Together  we'll rejoice
And with Him be forever glad!
