Lyrics
"New" copyright 2005 August Mosco
Beyond the sea and earth and sky,
The new Jerusalem on high
will come down--like a virgin bride,
A city--for all to view
There'll be no death or mourning tears
and no more sin or strife or fears,
For from His throne, a voice we'll hear,
"I have made everything new",
(chorus)
New--new--everything new,
God's promise to us will come true,
The "old order" day
will have passed away,
For God will make everything new,
He'll live among us who believe
in Jesus--and were not deceived,
He'll gather up His family--
His children--the faithful few,
He'll dry our eyes and soothe our pain,
He'll quench our thirst--we'll be sustained,
We'll revel in the sweet refrain,
"You have made everything new",
(chorus)
For no one knows the hour or day,
Our Father God can only say,
but, when it comes there'll be no way
to flee from--the judgement due,
For Jesus is God's only plan
to ransom His dear fallen Man,
And yes, to gain this "promised land"
we must be also made new,
(chorus)
