Lyrics taken from the Bible

|
(from Revelation 1:3)
|
Blessed is he who reads aloud the words of the prophecy
|
And blessed are those who hear
|
And who keep what is written therein
|
For the time is near
|
|
(from Revelation 1:7)
|
He is coming with the clouds
|
And every eye will see him
|
Everyone who pierced him
|
And all the tribes of the earth will wail on account of him
|
|
(from Revelation 2:1-4)
|
Those of you who have not learned what some call the deep things of Satan
|
I know your works, I know your toil, and your patient endurance
|
And how you cannot hear evil men
|
But have tested those who call themselves apostles, but are not
|
And found them to be false
|
I know that you are enduring patiently and bearing out for my namesake
|
And you have not grown weary
|
But I have this against you
|
That you have abandoned the love you had
|
|
(from Revelation 2:9-10)
|
I know your tribulation and your poverty
|
And the slander of those who say that they are Jews, but they are not
|
They are a synagogue of Satan
|
Do not fear what you are about to suffer
|
Behold the devil is about to throw you into prison
|
|
Wanting, needing, waiting for you to justify my love
|
Hoping, praying for you to justify my love
|
|
(from Revelation 13:1-10)
|
And I saw a beast rising out of the sea with ten horns and seven heads
|
And a blasphemous name upon its head
|
And the beast that I saw was like a leopard
|
Its feet were like a bear's
|
And its mouth was like a lion's mouth
|
And to it the dragon gave his power, and his throne, and great authority
|
One of his heads had a mortal wound
|
But it seemed to have a mortal wound that was healed
|
And the whole earth followed the beast with wonder
|
|
Men worshipped the dragon for he had given his authority to the beast
|
And they worshipped the beast saying
|
"Who is like the beast and who can fight against the beast?"
|
And the beast was given a mouth uttering haughty and blasphemous words
|
And it was allowed to exercise authority for forty-two months
|
It opened its mouth to utter blasphemous words against God
|
|
It was allowed to make war on the saints and to conquer
|
And authority was given it over every tribe
|
And a people and tongue and nation
|
And all who dwell on earth could worship it in vain
|
If anyone has an ear let him hear
|
If anyone is to be taken captive, into captivity he will go
|
If anyone who slays with the sword, with the sword
|
|
Wanting, needing, waiting for you to justify my love
|
Hoping
|
|
(from Revelation 21:1-8)
|
Then, I saw a new heaven and a new earth
|
And I heard a great voice from the throne saying:
|
"Behold the dwelling of God is with men
|
He will dwell with them, and they shall be his people
|
And God himself will be with them
|
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes
|
And death shall be no more
|
Neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore
|
For these things will have passed away
|
|
To the thirsty I will give water without price
|
From the fountain of the water of life
|
He who conquers shall have this heritage
|
And I will be his God and he shall be my son
|
|
But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the polluted
|
As for the murderers, fornicators, sorcerers, idolators, and all liars
|
Their lot shall be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone."
|
|
(from Revelation 22:10-13)
|
And he said to me, he said to me:
|
"Do not seal up the words of the prophecy, for the time is near
|
Let the evildoers still do evil, and the filthy still be filthy
|
And the righteous still do right, and the holy still be holy
|
Behold, I am coming soon
|
I am the alpha and the omega
|
The first and the last
|
The beginning and the end."
|
|
Amen
|
|
What are you gonna do?
