Author: J. R. Baxter, Jr. Hymnal: NWSW1938 #196 (1938) First Line: It thrills my soul to hear the songs of praise Refrain First Line: I want to O to hear angels singing Lyrics: 1 It thrills my soul to hear the songs of praise,
We mortals sing below,
And tho it takes the parting of the ways,
Yet I must onward go;
I hope to hear thru-out unnumbered days,
The song earth cannot know,
They sing in heav'n a new song,
Of Moses and the Lamb.
Refrain:
I want to O to hear angels singing,
To bid me welcome to mansions bright and fair;
I want to hear the glad harps ringing,
With voices blending rich and rare;
I want to O to see the Master bringing,
A precious life-crown that I may own and wear;
I want to hear, hear that mighty chorus sweetly sing,
I want to hear, To hear it swell and ring!
2 The greatest joy that I have ever known,
Is praising Him in song,
I know some day when I have older grown,
My voice will not be strong;
But if good seed for Jesus I have sown,
With angels I'll belong,
They sing in heav'n a new song,
Of Moses and the Lamb. [Refrain]
3 The sweetest song that earth can ever boast,
Was sung when Christ was born,
Yet He who walked the Galileean coast,
Sometimes was sad forlorn;
He left the earth to send the Holy Ghost,
To guide us till that morn,
They sing in heav'n a new song,
Of Moses and the Lamb. [Refrain] Scripture: Revelation 14:3 Languages: English Tune Title: [It thrills my soul to hear the songs of praise]
