Song | I, John |
Artist | Elvis Presley |
Album | He Touched Me |
Lyrics:William J.Gaither Music:William J.Gaither | |
Oh well, I, John, he saw might numbers | |
A way up in the middle of the air | |
I, John he saw might numbers | |
Way in the middle of the air | |
Got to mighty move, John, you saw mighty numbers | |
Way up in the middle of the air | |
Well there were three gates in the east | |
And there were three gates in the west | |
Three gates in the north | |
Three gates in the south | |
And that makes twelve gates to the city all square wide | |
John, you saw might numbers way up in the middle of the air | |
Well John declared that he saw a man | |
He held twelve bright stars in his right hand | |
Well his eyes flashed fire like the burning sun | |
Old John got scared and he wanted to run | |
Well he wanted to run but his feet wouldn't go | |
Cause he felt the gospel cutting like a two-edged sword | |
And he heard a voice that said John, you take a look | |
And read what you see and then you write it in a book | |
And he saw twelve angels in the east | |
And there were twelve angels in the west | |
Twelve angels in the north, | |
Twelve angels in the south | |
That's a total of forty-eight angels to the city, four squared wide |
