REVELATION 6:9-11
“When the Lamb broke the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God, and because of the testimony which they had maintained; and they cried out with a loud voice, saying, “How long, O Lord, holy and true, will You refrain from judging and avenging our blood on those who dwell on the earth?” And there was given to each of them a white robe; and they were told that they should rest for a little while longer, until the number of their fellow servants and their brethren who were to be killed even as they had been, would be completed also.”
LYRIC:
THE MARTYRS:
”How long, O Lord, The Sov’reign,
Before you judge and avenge our blood?”
GOD:
“Blessed are all my children slain for the word of God.
Rest here a while longer
‘Til the last one comes.”
“There are others, sisters and brothers, to testify.
For their faithful witness they will surely die.
Blessed is the one whose breath
Boasts of Christ unto his death.
Though he knows a moment’s pain,
For a thousand years he’ll reign.”
THE MARTYRS:
“We’ll wait, O Lord, Great Sov’reign!
There is a blessed resurrection
Waiting for all your children slain for the word of God.
We’ll rest ‘neath the altar
‘Til the last one comes.”
GOD:
“There are others, sisters and brothers, to testify.
For their faithful witness they will surely die.
Blessed is the one whose breath
Boasts of Christ unto his death.
Though he knows a moment’s pain,
For a thousand years he’ll reign.”
THE MARTYRS:
“All praise to You, Great Sov’reign!
Be glorified through this brother who’s died.”
GOD:
“Welcome him all my children;
He was slain for the word of God.
Rest here dear faithful son,
‘Til the last one comes.”
