Revelation 4 opens a door in heaven - John sees the throne of God, four living creatures, and twenty-four elders who never stop singing. The throne room vision that anchors all of Revelation.

Full sung version coming soon.

Lyrics

After these things I looked And saw a door opened in heaven And the first voice that I heard Was one saying, come up here

Immediately I was in the Spirit Behold, there was a throne set in heaven And one sitting on the throne That looked like a jasper stone and a sardius There was a rainbow around the throne Like an emerald to look at

Around the throne were twenty-four thrones On the thrones were twenty-four elders sitting Dressed in white garments With crowns of gold on their heads

Out of the throne proceed lightnings And sounds and thunders There were seven lamps of fire burning before his throne Which are the seven Spirits of God

Holy, holy, holy Holy is the Lord God Almighty Who was and who is and who is to come Holy, holy, holy

Before the throne was something like a sea of glass Similar to crystal In the middle of the throne and around the throne Were four living creatures full of eyes Before and behind The first creature was like a lion The second creature like a calf The third had a face like a man And the fourth was like a flying eagle

When the living creatures give glory and honour and thanks To him who sits on the throne To him who lives forever and ever The twenty-four elders fall down And throw their crowns before the throne

Worthy are you, our Lord and God The Holy One To receive the glory and the honour and the power For you created all things And because of your desire they existed And were created

Holy, holy, holy Holy is the Lord God Almighty Worthy are you Worthy are you
