I, John
Oh well, I, John, he saw might numbersA way up in the middle of the airI, John he saw mighty numbersWay in the middle of the airGot to mighty move, John, you saw mighty numbersMovin' way up in the middle of the air
Well there were three gates in the east[And there were] three gates in the westThree gates in the northThree gates in the southAnd that makes twelve gates to the city all square wideHallelujah
Way in the middle of the airGot to mighty move, John, you saw mighty numbersMovin' way up in the middle of the air
Well John declared that he saw a manHe held twelve bright stars in his right handWell his eyes flashed fire like the burning sunOld 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 swordAnd he heard a voice that said John, you take a lookAnd 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 westTwelve angels in the northTwelve angels in the southThat's a total of forty-eight angels to the city, four squared wideHallelujah
I, John he saw mighty numbersWay in the middle of the airGot to mighty move, John, you saw mighty numbersMovin' way up in the middle of the air
