\nThere is singing up in heaven
\nsuch as we have never known,
\nWhere the angels sing the praises
\nof the Lamb upon the throne;
\nTheir sweet harps are ever tuneful
\nand their voices are always clear,
\nO that we might be more like them
\nwhile we serve the Master here!<\/p>\n
Refrain
\nHoly, holy, is what the angels sing,
\nAnd I expect to help them make
\nthe courts of heaven ring;
\nBut when I sing redemption’s story,
\nthey will fold their wings,
\nFor angels never felt the joys
\nthat our salvation brings.<\/p>\n
2
\nBut I hear another anthem,
\nblending voices clear and strong,
\n“Unto Him who hath redeemed us
\nand hath bought us,” is the song;
\nWe have come thro’ tribulations
\nto this land so fair and bright,
\nIn the fountain freely flowing
\nHe hath made our garments white.<\/p>\n
3
\nThen the angels stand and listen,
\nfor they cannot join that song,
\nLike the sound of many waters,
\nby that happy, blood-washed throng;
\nFor they sing about great trials,
\nbattles fought and vict’ries won,
\nAnd they praised the great Redeemer,
\nwho hath said to them, “Well done.”<\/p>\n
4
\nSo, although I’m not an angel,
\nyet I know that over there
\nI will join a blessed chorus
\nthat the angels cannot share;
\nI will sing about my Savior,
\nwho upon dark Calvary
\nFreely pardoned my transgressions,
\ndied to set the sinner free.<\/p>\n
