1. O blessed tho’t! O joy divine!
To know I’m His, and He is mine;
That I shall sing in heav’n ere long
The greatest theme, the glad new song.
Refrain:
The glad new song, the glad new song,
I’ll sing it with the ransomed throng;
Oh, praise the Lord, ’twill not be long,
Until we sing the glad new song.
2. O Jesus! sweetest name of all,
The name on which I love to call;
For He redeemed me from the wrong,
And gave to me the glad new song.
3. O simple faith! O saving grace!
To know we soon shall see His face;
For He shall come in clouds ere long,
And then we’ll sing the glad new song.
