Verse 1
Gm
'Cause there's One Who's seated above the circle of the earth
He inhabits eternity and his name is Holy, Holy, Holy,
Holy, Holy
Behold, I saw visions of God,
Behold I saw visions of God
I saw a whirlwind, a whirlwind from above
I could hardly believe my eyes, and in the middle of the whirlwind
I saw something like a sea of glass, like crystal mingled with fire
And on the sea of glass there were seven torches burning
Going back and forth and back and forth,
and back and forth, the Spirit of God
And there were angels, angels, angels, angels all around
There was something like the color of amber,
like a raging fire engulfing itself,
Like raging beauty
Verse 2
Gm
Holy holy holy holy holy is the Lord God Almighty,
Who was and is and is to come
Who was and is and is to come, and is to come
And around the throne there were lightning and there were thunderings
And there were voices, many, many voices, around the throne
And I was caught up in something like a whirlwind,
the color of fire all around
And the angels and the thunder and the lightning and the voices
And behold I looked, and behold
Verse 3
Gm
Above the firmament, above the sea of glass
there was something like a throne
And on the throne, I could hardly believe my eyes,
above the circle of the earth
In the center of the universe, in the middle of it all
There's a man on the throne! There's a man on the throne!
There's a man on the throne! There's a man on the throne!
There's a man on the throne!
Son of David, The Jewish man, the cnter from Nazereth
He's alive, He's alive, He's alive, Ohhh

Come near oh burning one
