Psalm 96:1-2

Sing a new song to the LORD!

Let the whole earth sing to the LORD!

Sing to the LORD; praise his name.

Each day proclaim the good news that he saves.

I Will Sing a New Song by Howard Thurman

The old song of my spirit has wearied itself out.

It has long ago been learned by my heart;

It repeats itself over and over,

bringing no added joy to my days or lift to my spirit.

I will sing a new song.

I must learn the new song for the new needs.

I must fashion new words born of all the new growth of my life - of my mind - of my spirit.

I must prepare for new melodies that have never been mine before, that all that is within me may lift my voice unto God.

Therefore, I shall rejoice with each new day and delight my spirit in each fresh unfolding.

I will sing, this day, a new song unto the Lord.

Lord, bless this day. Let me rejoice and sing a new song. Let your spirit come within me and let me do something about it. Amen.
