Revelation Advent Calendar - Chapter 15

And I saw what appeared to be a sea of glass mingled with fire—and also those who had conquered the beast and its image and the number of its name, standing beside the sea of glass with harps of God in their hands. And they sing the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying,

"Great and amazing are your deeds,
    O Lord God the Almighty!
Just and true are your ways, 
    O King of the nations!
Who will not fear, O Lord, 
    and glorify your name?
For you alone are holy.
    All nations will come
    and worship you,
for your righteous acts have been revealed."
(Revelation 15:2-4)

"Dear Christian songwriter: here are some lyrics my boy Moses wrote. They sing it up here already, but I thought you might be interested in taking a crack at writing a new tune for them. Love, God"

All kidding aside - beautiful words, a beautiful melody by Jim Cooper and Brian Wooten, and a beautiful arrangement by Petra.

Great and marvelous are Your deeds, o Lord God almighty
Great and marvelous are Your deeds, o Lord God almighty
Just and true are Your ways, o King of the ages
Who shall not fear, oh Lord, and glorify Your name?

For You alone, You alone are holy
All nations will come and worship before You, Lord
For You alone, You alone are holy
All nations will come and worship before You, Lord
You alone are holy, holy
