137. Songs of Praise the Angels Sang

1 Songs of praise the angels sang,
Heaven with hallelujahs rang,
When creation was begun,
When God spoke, and it was done.

2 Heaven and earth must pass away;
Songs of praise shall crown that day.
God will make new heavens, new earth;
Songs of praise shall hail their birth.
