Song lyrics

2, 3, 4


I waited patiently for the Lord

He inclined and heard my cry

He brought me up out of the pit

Out of the miry clay


I will sing, sing a new song

I will sing, sing a new song

How long to sing this song?

How long to sing this song?

How long, how long, how long

How long to sing this song?


You set my feet upon a rock

And made my footsteps firm

Many will see, many will see and fear


I will sing, sing a new song

I will sing, sing a new song

I will sing, sing a new song

I will sing, sing a new song

How long to sing this song?

How long to sing this song?

How long to sing this song?

How long to sing this song?
