With harps and with vials
33
11.12.Ref.
1 With harps and with vials there stands a great throng
In the presence of Jesus, and sing this new song:
Unto Him who hath loved us and wash’d 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.
3 He maketh the rebel a priest and a king,
He hath bought us , and taught us this new song to sing.
4 How helpless and hopeless we sinners had been,
If He never had loved us, till cleansed from our sin.
5 Aloud in His praises our voices shall ring,
So that others, believing, this new song shall sing.
