SCRIPTURE

"and they cry with a great voice, saying, Salvation unto our God who sitteth on the throne, and unto the Lamb." — Revelation 7:10 (ASV)

And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne and unto the Lamb.

They all sing one song, and it is the same song that we sing on earth, Salvation to our God. They know nothing up in heaven of any salvation by the works of the law or by human merits. Oh, no!

They sing, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.

And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.

In Jerusalem they cried Hosanna, which was "Save, Lord," but now they have risen a little higher, and they sing, Salvation to our God. It is the same melody but it is pitched to a loftier key, and there are more to sing it; and they are not now conducting a prince to his throne but they are looking up to the king upon his throne, reigning there.
