I heard a sound from heaven like the sound of cascading waters and like the rumbling of loud thunder. The sound I heard was also like harpists playing on their harps.They sang a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders, but no one could learn the song except the 144,000 who had been redeemed from the earth.

4,000 are to be gatekeepers, and 4,000 are to praise the Lord with the instruments that I have made for worship.”

Praise Him with trumpet blast; praise Him with harp and lyre.Praise Him with tambourine and dance; praise Him with flute and strings.Praise Him with resounding cymbals; praise Him with clashing cymbals.

It is good to praise Yahweh, to sing praise to Your name, Most High,to declare Your faithful love in the morning and Your faithfulness at night,with a ten-stringed harp and the music of a lyre.
