I, John
Oh well then, I, John, he a might number
Way up in the middle of the air
Well I, John he saw a mighty number
Way in the middle of the air
Got to mighty move that I John, you saw a mighty number
Way up in the middle of the air
Well I, John he saw a mighty number
Way in the middle of the air
Well there were three gates in the east
Three gates in the west
Three gates in the north
Three gates in the south
Twelve gates to the city all square wide, hallelujah
Got to mighty move that I John, you saw a mighty number
Way up in the middle of the air
Well I, John he saw a mighty number
Way in the middle of the air
Got to mighty move that I John, you saw a mighty number
Way up in the middle of the air
Well I, John he saw a mighty number
Way in the middle of the air
Well John declared that he saw a man
He had twelve bright stars in his right hand
Well, his eyes flashed fire like the burning sun
Old John got scared, 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
He saw twelve angels in the east (oh yeah)
Twelve angels in the west (in the west, now)
Twelve angels in the north
Twelve angels in the south (Lord)
Forty-eight angels to the city, four squared wide, hallelujah
Got to mighty move that I John, you saw a mighty number
Way up in the middle of the air
Well I, John he saw a mighty number
Way in the middle of the air
Got to mighty move that I John, you saw a mighty number
Way up in the middle of the air
Well I, John he saw a mighty number
Way in the middle of the air
