They sang as it were a new song before the throne, before
the four living creatures, and the elders; and no one could learn that song
except the hundred and forty-four thousand who were redeemed from the earth.

In Revelation 14:1, the
144,000 have their feet firmly planted on an earthly Mount Zion. Yet their
praise takes them right to the presence of God, right before the throne. In our praise and worship, we really can
transport ourselves and be heard in heavenly places. (DG)

“Heaven is not the place to learn that song; it
must be learned on the earth You must learn here the notes of free grace and
dying love; and when you have mastered their melody, you will be able to offer
to the Lord the tribute of a grateful heart, even in heaven, and blend it with
the harmonies eternal.” (Spurgeon)
