Wait a little while,
Then we'll sing the New Song;
Wait a little while,
Then we'll sing the New Song.
1 The warfare here will soon be done,
Then we'll sing the New Song;
The fight for truth will soon be won,
Then we'll sing the New Song. [Refrain]
2 The Lord from heav'n will soon appear,
Then we'll sing the New Song;
And bring His full redemption near,
Then we'll sing the New Song. [Refrain]
3 Our pray'rs and fasts will then be o'er,
Then we'll sing the New Song;
And we shall rest forevermore,
Then we'll sing the New Song. [Refrain]
4 Then let us haste the happy day,
Then we'll sing the New Song;
Let's work and wait and watch and pray,
Then we'll sing the New Song. [Refrain]
5 Let ev'ry ransomed spirit cry,
Then we'll sing the New Song;
For Jesus' coming from on high,
Then we'll sing the New Song. [Refrain]
6 Let all creation groan to see,
Then we'll sing the New Song;
This happy day of liberty,
Then we'll sing the New Song. [Refrain]
7 O hallelujah it is near,
Then we'll sing the New Song;
Our glorious Lord will soon appear!
Then we'll sing the New Song. [Refrain]
