I
IN THE BOOK OF REVELATIONS JOHN SAW A CELEBRATION
ROUND THE THRONE OF THE GREAT I AM.
HE SAW IT IN A VISION, ANGELS BY THE MILLIONS.
CRYING HOLY, HOLY TO THE LAMB.
II
ANGELS ARE CREATED BEINGS THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND THE MEANING
OF GOD'S MERCY THEY'VE NEVER KNOWN HIS GRACE.
THEY DON'T KNOW THE WORD FORGIVEN
FOR MY SINS THOSE NAILS WERE DRIVEN
THRU THOSE HANDS AT CALVARY THAT DAY.
III
WHEN I FINALLY REACH THAT CITY AND I HEAR THE MASTER BID ME
ENTER IN AND HE WIPES MY TEARS AWAY
WITH ALL RESPECT INTENDED I HOPE NO ONE'S OFFENDED
WHEN I SEE JESUS I BELIEVE I'LL HAVE TO SAY.
CHORUS
ANGELS STEP BACK HERE I COME
I'VE GOT TO PRAISE YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU'VE DONE.
I WANT TO CRY HOLY, HOLY, HOLY
I WANT TO SHOUT GLORY, GLORY, GLORY.
ANGELS STEP BACK HERE I COME
ending
OH I WANT TO CRY HOLY, HOLY, HOLY TO THE GREAT I AM.
I WANT TO SHOUT GLORY, GLORY, GLORY TO THE RISEN LAMB.
