Lyrics
Tell me, who is that writing? (My Lord, John the revelator)
Who is that writing? (My Lord, John the revelator)
What is he writing? (My Lord about the revelation)
Yes, he's writing in the book of the seven seals
Tell me who is that writing? (My Lord, John the revelator)
Who is that writing? (My Lord, John the revelator)
What is he writing? (My Lord, about the revelation)
Yes, he's writing in the book of the seven seals
As the book was opened breaking seal after seal
There was a mighty rumbling like a chariot wheel
John said, "Let me tell ye just what I see
Beasts began to rise up out of the sea
Four hundred twenty elders, well, they're singing a song
As God stepped out from heaven just to right all wrong"
Tell me, who is that writing? (My Lord, John the revelator)
Who is that writing? (My Lord, John the revelator)
What is he writing? (My Lord, about the revelation)
Yes, he's writing in the book of the seven seals
God called out to Gabriel, go blow your mighty sound
And wake the living nations all beneath the ground
With one foot on the mountain and the other in the sea
Gabe's trumpet beat like thunder as he set the nations free
The mountain it did shutter and the sea began to swell
And with one mighty blast Gabe swept the gates of hell
Tell me who is that writing? (My Lord, John the revelator)
Who is that writing? (My Lord, John the revelator)
What is he writing? (My Lord, about the revelation)
Yes, he's writing in the book of the seven seals
God snapped out the sun like a candle in the wind
The moon began to drip in blood
The trees began to bend
God cried to the sinners come all ye under me
'Cause I'm gonna set all the righteous free
The dead is gonna rise
The dumb is gonna talk
The lame is gonna pick up his bed and walk
God said, "Let me tell you
You will never be free till you love your brothers
As you say you love me"
Tell me, who is that writing? (My Lord, John the revelator)
Who is that writing? (My Lord, John the revelator)
What is he writing? (My Lord, about the revelation)
He's writing in the book of the seven seals
Tell me, who is that writing? (John the revelator)
Tell me, who is that writing? (Oh, John the revelator)
What is he writing? (About the revelation)
Yes, he's writing in the book
Yes, he's writing in the book
I tell you he's writing in the book of the seven seals
