Lyrics
I wanna sing a new song
Shout it out louder than before
Let the whole earth sing
The whole earth sing
There is a place where we can seek His face
Changed in His presence where touched by His grace
There is a sound I hear it all around
Worship is rising and people crying out
I wanna sing a new song
Shout it out louder than before
Let the whole earth sing
The whole earth sing
It's a song of praise
A song for all of the redeem
Let the whole earth sing
The whole earth sing
Never the same, He's taken my chains
There's freedom in Jesus, power to save
There is a name like no other name
There's freedom in Jesus
shout out His name
I wanna sing a new song
Shout it out louder than before
Let the whole earth sing
The whole earth sing
It's a song of praise
A song for all of the redeem
Let the whole earth sing
The whole earth sing
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
I wanna sing a new song
Shout it out louder than before
Let the whole earth sing
The whole earth sing
And it's a song of praise
A song for all of the redeem
Let the whole earth sing
The whole earth sing
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Meaning & Inspiration
“Sing a New Song” is an expansive call to praise that moves from personal renewal to worship shared across the earth. The opening refrain urges a louder song, while the verses connect that praise with seeking God’s face, receiving grace, and being changed in his presence. Freedom from chains and the saving name of Jesus give the celebration a clear reason: redemption has produced a new response.
The repeated hallelujahs turn the lyric into a sustained act of congregational worship rather than a detailed narrative. Its central phrase closely follows the biblical command to sing a new song to the Lord and invite all the earth to join. References to the redeemed also fit Scripture’s image of a people singing because Christ has purchased freedom. Through repetition and broad invitation, the song portrays praise as public gratitude for salvation, centered on Jesus and meant to spread beyond a single voice or gathering.
