The book is still right, and the song a delight,
The problem you see, is still you and me.
As Our ears fail to harken, and Our eyes that are dark
How can we fix this; what can be done, where is the Way, in which victory is won?,
Is that a sound, just little and small, but can’t mean anything no nothing at all,
Could it be the voice of a leader; but still it’s persisting; in calm steady meter.
A sparkle of light, my eyes are straining , is there something of value still here remaining
Is this a beginning of something brand new, or the call for a payment long past due?
No one comes here, this place is a wreck, just fear and filth here; no prospects.
Are my eyes lying, that can’t be; can it, the book his has open; the word pouring out,
a new song from his voice, is easing my doubt.
It all blends together the old and the new. The singing I hear, is that me and you?
Isaiah 9: 10For the LORD hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes, the prophets; and your heads, the seers, hath he covered.
11And all vision is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he says, I cannot, for it is sealed: 12and the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he says, I can not read.
Revelation 5:1I saw in the right hand of Him who sat on the throne a book written inside and on the back, sealed up with seven seals. 2And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the book and to break its seals?” 3And no one in heaven or on the earth or under the earth was able to open the book or to look into it. 4Then I began to weep greatly because no one was found worthy to open the book or to look into it; 5and one of the elders said to me, “Stop weeping; behold, the Lion that is from the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome so as to open the book and its seven seals.”
6And I saw between the throne (with the four living creatures) and the elders a Lamb standing, as if slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent out into all the earth. 7And He came and took the book out of the right hand of Him who sat on the throne. 8When He had taken the book, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each one holding a harp and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. 9And they sang a new song, saying,
“Worthy are You to take the book and to break its seals; for You were slain, and purchased for God with Your blood men from every tribe and tongue and people and nation.
10“You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to our God; and they will reign upon the earth.
