First Line: With harps and with vials there stand a great throng,

With harps and with vials there stand 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 for ever. Amen.

2 All these once were sinners, defiled in His sight,
Now arrayed in pure garments in
praise they unite :

3 He maketh the rebel a priest and a king;
He hath bought us, and taught us
this new song to sing :

4 How helpless and hopeless we sinners had been,
If He never had loved us till cleansed from our sin !

5 Aloud in His praises our voices shall ring,
So that others, believing, this new song shall sing :
