Calvary Songs ‎#144

144. The New Song

1 With harps and with viols, there stand a great throng
In the presence of Jesus, and sing this new song:—

Refrain:
Unto him who hath loved us and washed us from sin,
Unto him be the glory for ever. Amen.

2 All these once were sinners, defiled in his sight,
Now arrayed in pure garments in praise they unite. [Refrain]

3 He maketh the rebel a priest and a king,
He hath bought us and taught us this new song to sing. [Refrain]

4 How helpless and hopeless we sinners had been,
If he never had loved us till cleansed from our sin. [Refrain]

5 Aloud in his praises, our voices shall ring,
So that others, believing, this new song shall sing. [Refrain]
