Lyrics
Give us the wings of faith to rise
within the veil, and see
the saints above, how great their joys,
how bright their glories be.
We ask them whence their victory came;
they with united breath
ascribe their conquest to the Lamb,
their triumph to his death.
They marked the footsteps that he trod,
his zeal inspired their quest;
and, following their incarnate God,
they reached the promised rest.
