Old songs New songs

Hear the songs of the saints of old

Hear how they still ring true

Hear the stories they have told

Their message is ever new.

For the old songs and new songs

Are faithful and true songs

Because the truth has set us free

If we have the ears to hear and the eyes to see...

Hear the songs of kingdom youth

Feel the passion that theyÝ feel

There is no time like now for truth

And for living life with zeal.

For the old songs and new songs

Are faithful and true songs

The redeemed song of victory

If we have the ears to hear and the eyes to see...

Weep with those who weep
And rejoice with those who rejoice

And deep calls out unto deep
United in one holy voice.

The saints of old the saints anew

Are one in Christ and so are you.

For the old songs and new songs

Are faithful and true songs

All blended in one melody

If we have the ears to hear and the eyes to see...

So sing the songs of ages past

And the songs of yesterday

The song of grace will always last

To be joined by theÝ songs of today

For the old songs and new songs

Are faithful and true songs

Our voices raised in unity

If we have the ears to hear and the eyes to see...
