Singing Newly the Songs of God (Family Worship lesson in Psalm 98)

What does it mean to “sing a new song”? Pastor leads his family in today’s “Hopewell @Home” passage. Psalm 98 prepares us for the first portion of morning public worship on the coming Lord’s Day. In these nine verses, the Holy Spirit teaches us that we are not to sing God’s songs as dead repetition, but as genuine interactions with Him, as He advances His work in redemption. In this way, His songs are new as Christ comes, and ascends, and the gospel goes forth to all the nations—even unto the last and great day, in which the creation itself will rejoice with the children of God (cf. Romans 8:18–26).(click here to DOWNLOAD mp3/pdf files of this lesson)
