Revelation 20:1-15 — from the binding of Satan to the Great White Throne.
*“The Throne & The Thousand Years”* _Gospel Style_
_Tempo: 92 BPM, organ + choir + claps_
__
Chain in his hand... thousand years... the Throne is coming...
__
I saw an angel come down from heaven, yeah, with authority
(Choir: From heaven!)
Key of the bottomless pit, great chain in his hand
He laid hold on the dragon — that old serpent, Devil, Satan
(Choir: Bound him up!)
Cast him in the pit, shut it, set a seal on top
Deceive the nations no more, till a thousand years are up
__
But after that... he must be loosed a little season
__
Blessed and holy! Blessed and holy is he
(Choir: Blessed and holy!)
Who has part in the first resurrection — second death has no power!
We reign with Christ a thousand years, priests of God and the Lamb!
(Choir: Reign with Him!)
But watch... ‘cause when the years expire, Satan’s loosed again
__
I saw thrones, and judgment was given to those who sat
(Choir: Judgment seat!)
Souls beheaded for Jesus’ witness, for the Word of God
They didn’t worship the beast, no mark on hand or brow
(Choir: They stood firm!)
They lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years — that’s the first resurrection
__
Thousand years gone, Satan loosed from his prison
Goes out to deceive Gog and Magog, four corners of earth
Number like sand of the sea, compassed the saints, the beloved city
(Choir: Surrounded!)
But fire came down from God out of heaven — devoured them all
Devil cast in the lake of fire, where beast and false prophet fall
Tormented day and night forever, forever and ever
__
Then I saw a Great White Throne... and Him who sat on it
(Choir: Great White Throne!)
Earth and heaven fled away, no place found for them
Books were opened... another book — the Book of Life
(Choir: Book of Life!)
Sea gave up the dead, death and hell gave up their own
Every man judged by his works, according to what was known
__
Death and hell cast in the lake of fire — that’s the second death!
(Choir: Second death!)
Whosoever’s name’s not in the Book of Life... cast in the fire
But we overcome! We reign with the Lamb!
(Choir: Reign with the Lamb!)
Blessed and holy are those who stand before the Throne!
__
Write my name... in the Book of Life... Hallelujah!
You can drop the organ low on “Great White Throne” and let the choir vamp “Write my name” for the altar call moment.
