HYMN EMHB 832 YMHB 616
1.
For all the saints who from their labours
rest,
Who Thee by faith
before the world confessed,
Thy name, O Jesus, be
for ever blest.
Alleluia!

Fun awon mimo tin won ti simi,
Ti nwon f’ igbagbo

Alleluya!
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!
2. ‘Wo l’ Apata, Odi Agbara won;
‘Wo ni Balogun won loju ija;
Wo n’ imole won ninu okunkun.
Alleluya!
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!
3. Awon omo-ogun Re oloto;
‘Ba leja b’awon mimo igbani;
Ki nwon si gba ade wura bi nwon!
Alleluya!
4.
O blest communion, fellowship divine!
We feebly struggle;
they in glory shine,
Yet all are one in
Thee, for all are Thine.
Alleluia!
4. Idapo mimo t’o ni ibukun!
Awa njijakadi, nwon ndan logo!
Sugbon tire kanna ni gbogbo wa.
Alleluya!
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!
5.
‘Gbat’
ija ba gbona, ti ogun le,
A ngbo orin isegun lokere,
Igboiya a si de, at’ agbara.
Alleluya!
