Sing a new song to our God
for all the wonders which God keeps on doing!
God’s strength of will and faithful purpose win the day
and prove such good intentions and saving power
to all the nations.

God keeps this promise of loyal and constant love,
and all the people of the earth
can see it for themselves.

Then, joyfully resounding,
let all the earth break out in song
and every instrument be tuned to praise our God.
Let the sea roar, the torrents crash,
and the hills send back the sound of joy
at the arrival of our redeemer.

For our redeemer comes to rule over the whole family of humankind
with justice and fairness.
