Sing a New Song

Sing a new song 
for this one life 
For this only earth 
For this new day 

Sing a new song 
For an old sun rising anew
For old dreams meeting new plans 
For weary souls awakened by new hope calling 

Sing for new justice and faithful hearts
Keeping covenant with determined strength 
Bang that drum in vigorous tempo 
Stroke the harp with delicate abandon 

Blow trumpet and horn
Make noise, all people
Harmonize with the breaking waves
The melody of wind
The clap of thunder
The low hum of mountain 

The flute, the cymbal 
The laugh, the shout 
The beat, the boom 
The tune, the time 

Let your silent mind sing 
Your quiet heart sing 
Your strong arm sing 
Your clear vision sing 

Let your admirable character 
Your pure intention 
Your sure faith yours 
and surging spirit sing, sing, sing
