Verse 1

We shall have a new name in that land, In that land, that sunny, sunny land, When we meet the bright angelic band, In that sunny land. A new name, a new name We’ll receive up there; A new name, a new name, All who enter there.

Chorus

We shall have a new name in that land, In that land, that sunny, sunny land, When we meet the bright angelic band, In that sunny land.

Verse 2

We’ll receive it in a pure white stone, And no one will know the name therein, Only unto him who hath ‘tis known, When we’re free from sin. A white stone, a white stone We'll receive up there; A white stone, a white stone, All who enter there.

Chorus

We shall have a new name in that land, In that land, that sunny, sunny land, When we meet the bright angelic band, In that sunny land.

Verse 3

Don’t you wonder what that name will be, Sweeter far that aught on earth can be, We will be quite satisfied when we Shall that new name know. I wonder, I wonder What that name will be, I wonder, I wonder, What he’ll give to me.

Chorus

We shall have a new name in that land, In that land, that sunny, sunny land, When we meet the bright angelic band, In that sunny land.
