THE LAMB SONG – THE NEW SONG
“Sing to the LORD a new song, for He has done wonders; His right hand and holy arm have gained Him the victory.”
Songs are an integral part of a believer’s life. They serve as means of educating, instructing, inspiring, and admonishing the believers. There are carnal songs that only satisfy the soul and the sensual realm of men.
But songs of the Kingdom are primarily designed for the adoration of the Lord and the exhortation and education of the believer.
The songs of the Kingdom are spiritual songs.
These songs are the outflow of a deep spiritual experience and insight. They are born out of the revelational-light of God.
The songs you sing determine the revelation of God in your heart.
A man full of the Spirit and the Word of Christ is a man of deep spiritual songs (Ephesians 5:18-19; Colossians 3:16).
The scriptures admonish us throughout the Old Testament to sing unto the Lord as you can see in the opening verse of this episode. Apart from the instruction to sing, there are several examples of the people of God singing.
Songs were sung to comfort, to make merry and celebrate, to burst forth in faith, to instruct, to inspire hope and courage, to praise and adore the Lord.
One of the key instructions you will find in the Psalms is, “Sing a new song unto the Lord” (Psalm 98:1; Psalm 33:3; Psalm 149:1).
To sing a new song is to sing the ultimate song of the Lord. Singing a new song is not necessarily having new lyrics and rhythm of songs.
A new song is a body of songs we are instructed to sing. A new song is not just a generic song about God.
The new song is also known as the LAMB SONG.
It is a song which communicates the victory of the Lord which He wields through His death and resurrection. This song is the eternal song of the Lord. It is a song we will sing in all eternity. It is the foundational song of the Kingdom and the Lord’s throne.
One may ask “How is this LAMB SONG the new song”?
And “Which songs are Old songs”?
Well, there is nothing really like an old song to God. But there is a new song.
The reason I wouldn’t refer to any other song to God as an old song is that, they are not obsolete. They are songs John the apostle heard from the living creatures and the twenty-four elders.
These are called the songs of God’s Being, His Might and splendor of His Holiness.
“And the four living creatures, each of them with six wings, are full of eyes all around and within, and day and night they never cease to say,
“Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come!” Revelation 4:8 (ESV)
They can also be called songs of glory and honor in creation.
“And whenever the living creatures give glory and honor and thanks to him who is seated on the throne, who lives forever and ever, the twenty-four elders fall down before him who is seated on the throne and worship him who lives forever and ever. They cast their crowns before the throne, saying,
“Worthy are you, our Lord and God,
to receive glory and honor and power,
for you created all things,
and by your will they existed and were created.” Revelation 4:9-11 (ESV)
They are songs which testify of God’s being and work in creation.
These songs were sung at the foundation of creation.
“Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;
When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?” Job 38:6-7 (KJV)
However, the LAMB SONG is the present and priceless song in God’s heart. Though the LAMB SONG has been a melody in God’s heart before the foundation of the world, it is the New song because it is the trending song for all eternity.
John the apostle in his prophetic vision, saw a rolled-up scroll (book) securely sealed with seven seals. This book was extremely important considering how it was sealed.
(Historically, under Roman Law, an important legal document which especially pertains to life and death is required to be perfectly sealed. It was mostly sealed seven times).
These Heavenly scrolls required one who was worthy to open the scroll. And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book neither to look upon it. (Revelation 5:3).
This sealed scroll was like the earth’s title deed. Yet none was worthy to open the seals.
This even caused despair in John’s heart (Revelation 5:4). But glory be to God. Jesus, the Lion-LAMB has prevailed to open the scroll and to lose its seals.
Let me just bless you with this:
In Christ Jesus, there are no mysteries. Christ is the demystification of all mysteries!
He is the Lion of the tribe of Judah and the slain LAMB of God who has taken and opened the seal.
“And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. And they sang a new song, saying,
“Worthy are you to take the scroll
and to open its seals,
for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed people for God
from every tribe and language and people and nation,
and you have made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they shall reign on the earth.” Revelation 5:8-10 (ESV)
This is the new song. It’s a song which articulates the awe of all creation in the universe and the transcendent realms. It’s a song of the heavenly Hero.
It is a song which declares the victory of Christ.
This is a song all the glorious heavenly beings are singing. Even the creatures who are in heaven, on earth under the earth and those in the sea and all that are in the universe are singing the glorious song of the Lamb (Revelation 5:11-13).
The Lamb of God is worthy!
And every believer must sing this LAMB SONG every day.
Jesus the Lamb of God, is the subject of our songs and worship. He is our NEW SONG.

The Lamp song is a song unto Jesus who surrendered himself so the will of God be done on earth
Thank you Jesus. In this month of songs, to sing the new song is to sing the lamb song, telling of the transcendence of His work through death and resurrection. He ransomed us, no one could do so for us. And because of this, all creation sings his song forever…on the earth, under the earth, in seas and above all realms..one song…the new song…the lamb song! I cant get over it.
