Plagues Lyrics

Out of the temple they come. Seven angels dressed in shining linen

Receiving the golden bowls filled with the wrath of God

The first angel poured out his bowl on the land and ugly, painful sores broke out on the people

Who had the mark of the beast and worshiped his image

The second angel poured out his bowl on the sea

It turned into blood, and all the creatures in it died

The third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and springs, and they became blood

The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun and the sun scorched the people with fire

They were seared by intense heat and they cursed the name of God

The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, whose kingdom was plunged into darkness

Men gnawed their tongues in agony and cursed the God of heaven

I heard the angel in charge of the waters say

"You're just in these judgments and you have given them blood to drink as they deserve

For they have shed the blood of your saints and prophets"

"Yes, Lord God Almighty, true and just are your judgments

Yes, Lord God Almighty, true and just are your judgments"

But they refused to repent of what they had done, but they refused to repent and glorify him

"Behold, I come like a thief! Blessed is he who stays awake"

Out of the temple they come. Seven angels dressed in shining linen

Receiving the golden bowls filled with the wrath of God

The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the Euphrates

It's water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings from the East

Then I saw three evil spirits coming out of the dragon's mouth

And out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet

They go out to the kings of the world, to gather them together to Armageddon

The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air

And from the throne came a loud voice, saying, "It is done"

Then there came flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder and a severe earthquake

Every island fled away, mountains could not be found

From the sky fell huge hailstones of about a hundred pounds

I heard the angel in charge of the waters say

"You're just in these judgments and you have given them blood to drink as they deserve

For they have shed the blood of your saints and prophets"

"Yes, Lord God Almighty, true and just are your judgments

Yes, Lord God Almighty, true and just are your judgments"

But they refused to repent of what they had done, but they refused to repent and glorify him

"Behold, I come like a thief! Blessed is he who stays awake"
