With praise and thanksgiving there

With praise and thanksgiving

There stands a great throng

In the presence of Jesus

And sing this new song.

Unto Him Who hath loved us

And washed us from sin

Unto Him be the glory forever!

Amen!

All these once were sinners

Defiled in His sight

Now arrayed in pure garments

In praise they unite.

He maketh the rebel

A priest and a king

He hath bought us

and taught us

This new song to sing.

How helpless and hopeless

We sinners had been

If He never had loved us till

Cleansed from our sin.

Aloud in His praises

Our voices shall ring

So that others

believing

This new song shall sing.
