Sing a New Song to the Lord (AOV 2/76)

If you want a change from Dan Schutte’s setting of Ps 98, you could use this one by Timothy Dudley-Smith (an Anglican Bishop)and David Wilson. A sample is available to hear at AOV. You can hear a church have a go at it here.

Verse 1

Sing a new song to the Lord,
he to whom wonders belong!
rejoice in his triumph and tell of his power–
O sing to the Lord a new song!

Verse 2

Now to the ends of the earth
see his salvation is shown!
And still he remembers his mercy and truth,
unchanging in love to his own.

Verse 3

Sing a new song and rejoice,
publish his praises abroad!
Let voices in chorus, with trumpet and horn,
resound for the joy of the Lord!

Verse 4

Join with the hills and the sea
thunders of praise to prolong!
In judgment and justice he comes to the earth–
O sing to the Lord a new song!
