124. The New Song

1 A song we shall sing in the regions of light,
A song to earth’s toilers unknown—
Its measure so sweet, our sad hearts will delight,
We’ll sing it around the bright throne.

Chorus:
We’ll sing it around the bright throne;
We’ll sing it around the bright throne;
A song we shall sing in the regions of light;
A song to earth’s toilers unknown.

2 How gladly our voices will lift that new song
Of glory and praise to our King,
How gladly our lips will its sweet notes prolong,
How grandly that anthem will ring! [Chorus]

3 How sweetly that music shall fall on our ears!
No discord or sadness to mar,
That new song of gladness shall banish our tears,
And drive all our sorrows afar. [Chorus]
