I

God spreads His work among the gentile nations.

His glory flashes through the universe.

His will embodied in scattered men,

all steered by His hand, doing tasks assigned.

Now He has entered into a new era,

bringing all men into another world.

This is a new age after all,

and God has brought new work

to take more new people into the new age

and cast aside those He’ll eliminate.

This is a new age after all.

II

When God returned to His “homeland,”

He then began another part of His plan,

that man could know Him more deeply.

God regards the univers e completely,

He sees the right time for His work to be done.

He hurries here and there, doing His new work on man.

This is a new age after all,

and God has brought new work

to take more new people into the new age

and cast aside those He’ll eliminate.

This is a new age after all.

III

In the nation of the great red dragon,

God has done work that cannot be fathomed,

causing men to waver in the wind.

As it blows, many quietly drift away.

This is the “threshing floor” that God will clear.

This is His plan, what He longs for.

This is a new age after all,

and God has brought new work

to take more new people into the new age

and cast aside those He’ll eliminate.

This is a new age after all.

This is the new age,

this is the new age,

this is the new age after all.
