Chapter Twenty-Nine/ Singing the Triumphal New Song - Singing as if a New Song

 In harmony with this, John reports: "And I heard a sound out of heaven as the sound of many waters and as the sound of loud thunder; and the sound that I heard was as of singers who accompany themselves on the harp playing on their harps.  And they are singing as if a new song before the four living creatures and the elders; and no one was able to master that song but the hundred and forty-four thousand, who have been bought from the earth." (Revelation14:2, 3) It is no wonder that John, upon hearing 144,000 voices joined in one melodious chorus, is reminded of roaring waterfalls and pealing thunderclaps. How pleasant that clear harp-like accompaniment! (Psalm 8:12) What choir on earth could ever attain to the grandeur of that magnificent chorus?
