REVELATION

[Intro] [driving drum beat, rhythmic electric guitar, bass enters] [Verse 1] [tenor male vocals] Revelation! The revelation of Jesus Christ which God gave To show His servants the things that must soon take place To John on the island called Patmos On account of the word of God and the testimony of grace I was in the spirit on the Lord's day And heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet blast Write what you see in a book and send it To the seven churches in Asia at last [Chorus] [full band, power chords, string accents] To the one who conquers I will grant To eat from the tree of life in paradise Be faithful unto death and I will give you The crown of life that never dies [Verse 2] [bass-driven rhythm, staccato guitar] I saw in the right hand of Him Who was seated on the throne A scroll written within and on the back sealed with seven seals Who is worthy to open the scroll and break its seals? The Lion of Judah, the Root of David prevails [Chorus] [brass stabs, energetic drums] Worthy is the Lamb who was slain To receive power and wealth and wisdom and might Honor and glory and blessing forever Let all creation sing in His light [Bridge] [rhythmic intensity increases] The first four seals brought conquest, war, famine and death The fifth the souls of the martyrs cried out The sixth brought great earthquake and cosmic signs Then the seventh brought silence in heaven for half an hour [Verse 3] [syncopated guitar and drums] A woman clothed with the sun and moon under her feet Gave birth to a male child who will rule the nations The dragon stood ready to devour the child But the child was caught up to God's throne in salvation [Verse 4] [dramatic vocal delivery, heavy guitar hits] Babylon the great has fallen, has fallen The dwelling place of demons and every unclean thing Come out of her my people lest you share in her plagues For her sins are heaped high as heaven and her judgment is coming [Verse 5] [triumphant tone, bright guitars] Then I saw heaven opened and behold a white horse Its rider called Faithful and True He judges and makes war in righteousness The King of kings and Lord of lords in view [Outro] [high energy, rapid drum fills] The devil was thrown into the lake of fire Death and Hades gave up their dead Anyone not found written in the book of life Was thrown into the lake of fire instead Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth For the first heaven and first earth had passed away The holy city New Jerusalem coming down As a bride adorned for her husband on that day He will wipe away every tear from their eyes Death shall be no more Neither mourning nor crying nor pain Behold I am making all things new These words are trustworthy and true remain I am the Alpha and the Omega The beginning and the end, the first and the last Blessed are those who wash their robes That they may have the right to the tree of life at last The Spirit and the Bride say come Let the one who is thirsty come and take the water of life freely He who testifies to these things says Surely I am coming soon Amen, come Lord Jesus quickly [vocal ad-libs: Revelation, oh] [final drum hit and guitar ring out]
