Normally I purchase heavier music, but I loved that the entire Book of Revelation and it’s events were covered in this song. I find it great to listen to before I go to sleep as it keeps me longing for the return of The King of Kings!
Experience an epic, seven-movement journey through the Book of Revelation.
NOW RE-MASTERED!
lyrics
MOVEMENT I
I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day when, loudly, I heard
A voice sound like a trumpet from behind me, and so I turned
His hair was like white wool and His eyes were a flame of fire
Feet like bronze, voice like waters, and a face that shone like the sun
Jesus
So shall it be
Jesus
So let it be
Look, He is coming
Coming with the clouds
And every eye
Eye will see Him
I will see Him
Yes, even those
Those who pierced Him
And all the nations of the earth will mourn because of Him
Grace and peace to you, churches
From Him who was, is, and is to come
Jesus, the faithful witness
King of kings and the Firstborn One
Glory to Him who loves us and released us from sin by His blood
He has made us a kingdom
Priests to God and His Father above
Jesus
So shall it be
Jesus
So let it be
To angels of the church
To the stars, send these words:
I know you and your deeds
Every one, so take heed
Hot or cold, you must choose
Change your ways
Turn with zeal
Hear my voice and turn
Look, He is coming
Coming with the clouds
And every eye
Eye will see Him
I will see Him
Yes, even those
Those who pierced Him
And all the nations of the earth will mourn because of Him
MOVEMENT II
You are worthy!
(Who is worthy?)
You are worthy!
(Who can take the book and who can break its seals?)
You are worthy!
({Lion of Judah, Root of David)
You're the worthy lamb.
(You were slain, now you live!)
MOVEMENT III
Look, I see horsemen ride out
White, red, black and ashen
Conquering, bringing war, and famine, and death.
And the souls from the altar cry out:
How long, Lord, until you judge the earth?
Look, a black sun, a blood moon, and the stars are falling
Earth shaking
Sky rolled up
Great men cower in fear
And the angels hold back the four winds
Sons of Israel are sealed from their tribes
And a multitude stands before the One on the throne
Singing praises to God and the Lamb
MOVEMENT IV
Trumpet one: hail, fire and blood
And a third of the earth burned up
Trumpet two: flaming mountain flies
To the sea
Ships and creatures cry
Trumpet three: Wormwood star falls still
On the springs
Bitter waters kill
Trumpet four: sun, and moon, and stars
Day and night fade
Into the dark
Woe! Cries the eagle
Woe! Cries the eagle
Woe! Hear him cry
Trumpet five: smoke pours from the pit
Locusts come
Stings that torment men
Trumpet six: release four angels
Fire and smoke
Horses spew brimstone
But then I saw a mighty angel
Clothed in cloud and a rainbow crown
Shouting loudly out, seven thunders peal
What He said I have not written down
Take the book
Eat it
Prophesy
Olive trees
Two who witness rise
Now! Our Lord reigns now
Now! Our Lord reigns now
Now! Our Lord reigns
MOVEMENT V
See the pregnant woman clothed in stars and sun
Dragon waits to eat him: Kingly Chosen One
War in heaven rages
Dragon's hurled to earth
Enemy of ages felled by one Lamb's birth.
From the sea, a beast emerged
Whose fatal wound was healed
From the earth, another beast
Six, six, six, his seal
Purchased first fruits singing
Following the Lamb
Flying angels preaching
Fallen Babylon
Those marked with the number
Torment is their due
Sickle of the reaper
Bloody wine-press spews
Seven angels
Seven plagues
Sea of fire and glass
Tabernacle's filled with smoke
Gold bowls of God's wrath
Six bowls poured into the earth
Unrepentant men
Unclean spirits beckon kings to Armageddon then
City splits and nations fall
Hailstones pummel them
MOVEMENT VI
Carried away by the Spirit to a wilderness
I saw a harlot clothed in purple and scarlet
Riding a beast
Seven heads and ten horns: Babylon
She is a mystery
Drunk on the blood of the saints
War
Waging war against the Lord of lords
Burn
She will burn by the judgment of God
Fallen
Fallen is Great Babylon
Thinks she's a queen but she's wrong
Wicked and rich for so long
The Lord God who judges is strong
The kings of the earth see her burn
They weep and lament over her
Like a great millstone, she's thrown
Into the sea, cast her down
The blood of the prophets and saints is vindicated
Hallelujah
Salvation, glory, power now belong to our God
For His judgments are righteous and true
"Blessed are those who are invited to the marriage supper of the Lamb"
He said
"Those are the true words of God"
True
He is faithful and true, the white rider
Doom
Hurling down the false prophet and beast
Fallen
Fallen, the serpent of old
First resurrection of souls
Devil, false prophet and beast
Flames for the dead and their deeds
The heavens and earth pass away
God is with men now to stay
City of gold from the skies
Jewels mark the cube as it flies
The temple is God and the lamp of the Lamb will illuminate it
MOVEMENT VII (Reprise)
Look, He is coming quickly with the clouds
And every eye
Eye will see Him
I will see Him
The river flows
Flows by the tree of life
And all the nations of the earth will heal because of
The earth will heal because of Him
