Behold, these words
are trustworthy and true,
For God the Lord
is making all things new.
He showed His servants
what must take place,
The plagues and blessings
set for Adam’s race.
Now keep these words,
for he who overcomes
Will gain new life
and he will be God’s son.
“Behold,” says Jesus,
“Quick I come again;
Most blest is he who keeps
My words made plain.
The time is near; reward is in sight.
So holy stay and
always seek the right.
The First, the Last,
Beginning and the End,
The Alpha and Omega e’er I am.”
How blest are those
who wash their robes from sin,
That they may to the city enter in
And to the tree of life
have full right.
They’ll see God’s face,
and He will give them light.
The curse is gone!
They’ll reign forevermore
With Jesus, David’s Root,
bright Morning Star.
The Spirit and the bride
of Christ say, “Come!”
And let each one who hears
these words say, “Come!”
Yea, whosoever thirsts,
let him come.
The drink of life is free;
let all men come!
Hear Jesus’ words:
“Quickly I come again.”
O come, Lord Jesus,
come to us. Amen.
