Revelation 1

 
 1 

In Revelation chapter one

God gives a vision of the Son,

Of Him who was and is to come;

Oh, let us to this One now come.

 
 2 

In spirit hear His trumpet voice;

We must be turned to see His choice —

The seven lampstands golden fair;

The Son of Man is walking there.

 
 3 

The great high priestly robe He wears,

For every church He fully cares:

He trims the lamp, the oil supplies;

He makes them burn, flames in His eyes.

 
 4 

A golden girdle on His breast —

His work is done, and from His rest

He unto all the churches pours

Himself in love, the treasure store.

 
 5 

His head, His hair is white as wool —

The ancient One with youth is full.

His face is shining as the sun

To burn and lighten every one.

 
 6 

Oh, when this living One we see,

We'll fall as dead, we'll finished be.

But then the Lord His comfort gives —

He once was dead, but now He lives.

 
 7 

Let every church just love Him more —

His riches then He will outpour.

All others loves now lay aside;

Let's take this Jesus, none beside.
