I SAW THE LORD

"Then I saw a Lamb, looking as if it had been slain, standing in the centre of the throne...Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them singing "To Him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honor and glory and power for ever and ever." Rev 5:6,13

The place was white as snow
and pure as finest gold
It had the look of new; it had the look of old.
I felt like I was home, but felt so far away
In fear I thought to leave
but had the urge to stay

Then a silence fell, like none I'd ever known
I stood among the millions, I stood there all alone
His face was like the sun, His eyes were like the sea
His voice was like the thunder rolling through eternity

Chorus
and, I saw the Lord
He was high and lifted up
and rightfully adored I saw the Lord and He saw me

Then from sleep awakened I looked into the night
The darkness overtaken by a bright and shining light
I couldn't understand it and I couldn't reason how
But then my eyes beheld Him
I wasn't dreaming now

Chorus
Tag Ending
Lord you're so great may your name be forever, forever praised
Lord you're so great Be forever, ever, ever, ever praised
