When the Spirit takes control
I hear God’s voice quite clear
It’s just like being near
A roaring waterfall
A wondrous, majestic sight
Overflowing with power and might
Then turning round to look I see
The Son of Man in dazzling glory
As each new vision becomes complete
I fall down as dead at His feet
It’s just at this time when I’m full of fear
Jesus my Lord Himself draws near
Places His hand on my head
Says “Don’t be afraid, you are not dead
I am Alpha, Omega, the first, the last
I hold the key to the future and past
I was dead; now alive in eternity
I have all power and authority
Simply believe, Trust me.
Encouraged by these words of the Lord
I turn to see some more
Look up into the heavens
See a large, wide open door.
I hear a trumpet-like voice that says
“Come up here. I will show
Amazing things not known below.
As the Holy Spirit again takes control
I see a throne with a circle rainbow
And the slain Lamb standing there
Surrounded with precious stones; jewels rare
There are earthquakes, lightnings, peals of thunder
Amazed I notice with growing wonder
A sea like crystal; many more thrones
Fantastic creatures on every side singing
“Holy is the Almighty eternally living
To receive honour, thanks, power and glory
For you our Lord alone are worthy.”
In the hand of the one upon the throne
I see a seven sealed scroll
That can’t be undone
Till the lamb appears and takes the scroll
That He alone is worthy to unroll
He was killed – but now by His grace
People from every tribe, tongue, nation, race
Can meet with Almighty God face to face
Yes, the Lamb who died is worthy indeed
To receive power, riches, wisdom, strength
Honour and glory, praises at length
Yes! Every blessing, glory and might
Now and always, both day and night.
