Through the Eyes of John
Words by Rebekah Brown, Brockley
Reflections on the Book of Revelation, chapters 4 and 5.
Hello world, my name is John
No-one great, but a real someone
Have you been where I have been?
Have you seen what I have seen?
The throne-room of Almighty God
A place where no one dares to trod.
A thunder-cracking central throne
Indescribable precious stones
Surrounded by the Pillars of Faith
Listen to the words they say…
Worthy, worthy, worthy, is He
Who was and is and always will be
Bow thy head and bend thy knee
The awesome one is near to thee
Who can stand before this King?
Open the scroll; Salvation bring?
A Lion of Judah; David’s Son
Battles fought, Rescues Won.
Not a mighty Lion, No!
A slaughtered lamb defeats the foe.
Ransom paid, access free
The Lamb of God brings us peace.
Every nation, language tongue,
Together join in joyful throng…
Worthy, worthy, worthy, is He
Who was and is and always will be
Bow thy head and bend thy knee
The lamb has won the victory
Understand why Jesus’ prayer
Eyes on heaven takes us there.
Bowls of prayers aromas sweet
By his throne, at His feet
Things unseen by my small eyes
Truth obscured by worldly lies
God almighty rules, Jesus has won.
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done.
