SS&S 935: Oh, for a song, a fair new song,
1. Oh, for a song, a fair new song,
Of praise, and joy, and love!
To reach the hearts of earth's sad throng,
And lift to heaven above —
Of praise like the praise that the angels bring;
Of joy like the joy of the birds:
Of the love in our hearts for the
Christ our King —
Love ever too deep for words.
2. Oh, for a song, a fair new song,
That ne'er was sung before!
To sing to Him to whom belong
Our praises evermore —
A song like the echo from harps above,
Dropped down from the city of gold;
Yea, a song of the joy, and the praise, and love,
That ne'er hath been sung or told.
3. Oh, who shall sing this fair new song,
Or make its chords complete —
All notes of love, in souls that throng,
And place before His feet.
All fadeless the flowers in His path-
way strewn,
The pathway of Jesus our King?
Help us, Lord! for alas, sadly out of tune
Are the hearts which the song would sing.
4. Oh, help us, Lord! who knowest all!
We cannot sing or speak;
The clearest notes our lips let fall
Seem e'er too cold and weak:
Though sweet are the strains which
our songs have rung
From earth to the city of gold,
Yet His fulness of glory we never have sung—
The half ne'er hath yet been told.
5. Such songs as angels ne'er can bring,
The joy more pure than birds;
The love we bear for Christ our
'Tis far too deep for words. [King-
Be still, heart of mine! we must wait a while,
Thy God will attune thee ere long;
Then in heaven thou shalt sing in the
Master's smile
For ever the fair new song!

Psalm 33
1 Sing joyfully to the Lord, you righteous;
it is fitting for the upright to praise him.
2 Praise the Lord with the harp;
make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre.
3 Sing to him a new song;
play skillfully, and shout for joy.
4 For the word of the Lord is right and true;
he is faithful in all he does.
5 The Lord loves righteousness and justice;
the earth is full of his unfailing love.
6 By the word of the Lord the heavens were made,
their starry host by the breath of his mouth.
7 He gathers the waters of the sea into jars;
he puts the deep into storehouses.
8 Let all the earth fear the Lord;
let all the people of the world revere him.
9 For he spoke, and it came to be;
he commanded, and it stood firm.
10 The Lord foils the plans of the nations;
he thwarts the purposes of the peoples.
11 But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever,
the purposes of his heart through all generations.
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord,
the people he chose for his inheritance.
13 From heaven the Lord looks down
and sees all mankind;
14 from his dwelling place he watches
all who live on earth—
15 he who forms the hearts of all,
who considers everything they do.
16 No king is saved by the size of his army;
no warrior escapes by his great strength.
17 A horse is a vain hope for deliverance;
despite all its great strength it cannot save.
18 But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him,
on those whose hope is in his unfailing love,
19 to deliver them from death
and keep them alive in famine.
20 We wait in hope for the Lord;
he is our help and our shield.
21 In him our hearts rejoice,
for we trust in his holy name.
22 May your unfailing love be with us, Lord,
even as we put our hope in you.
