Revelation Song

“Revelation Song” by Gateway Worship is a powerful and evocative piece that draws heavily from the imagery and themes found in the Book of Revelation in the Bible. The song opens with a declaration of the worthiness of the Lamb who was slain, a direct reference to Jesus Christ and His sacrificial death. This sets the tone for the entire song, which is one of reverence, awe, and adoration. The repetition of the phrase “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty” emphasizes the holiness and eternal nature of God, who is described as “Who was and is and is to come.” This line underscores the timelessness and omnipresence of God, a central theme in Christian worship.

The lyrics also paint vivid pictures of heavenly scenes, with references to rainbows of living color, flashes of lightning, and rolls of thunder. These images are reminiscent of the visions described in the Book of Revelation, where the Apostle John describes the throne room of God. The song’s chorus, which speaks of singing with all creation to praise the King of kings, highlights the universal call to worship and the recognition of God’s supreme authority and majesty. The use of the term “King of kings” further elevates the status of God as the ultimate ruler above all earthly powers.

The song also delves into the personal relationship between the worshipper and God. Phrases like “You are my everything, and I will adore You” express a deep, personal devotion and love for God. The mention of Jesus’ name as “power, breath, and living water” encapsulates the life-giving and sustaining power of Christ. The song concludes with a reiteration of the holiness and eternal nature of God, bringing the focus back to the central theme of worship and adoration. Through its rich imagery and profound declarations, “Revelation Song” serves as a celestial anthem that invites believers to join in a chorus of eternal praise.
