1. Out on the Isle of Patmos, there’s
not too much to do,
Just work down in the salt mines,
until the day is through;
Just blood and sweat and labor,
until the body’s spent,
Into this situation, Ol’ Brother
John was sent.
2. So there he was in exile, upon
this little rock,
And silenced by the soldiers, he
was sure to rot;
For he had been so faithful, to
preach the holy Word,
And with his testimony, the Gospel
truth was heard.
Chorus 1: Yet I’ll praise Him, Hallelujah!
Hallelujah to His name!
In my trials and affliction,
I will praise His holy name.
3. Now it was on the Lord’s Day,
Ol’ John would testify,
His spirit was transported, so far
above the skies;
Caught up into the heavens, unto
the throne of God,
John saw the Lord Most Holy, in
wonder and in awe.
Chorus 2: Holy! Holy! Worthy! Worthy!
Hallelujah to His name!
Holy! Holy! Worthy! Worthy!
Worthy the Lamb that was slain!
4. He saw the Lord of Glory, Whom
angel hosts attend,
Sing "Holy! Holy! Holy!" Their praises
never end;
All heaven joins together, to bow
before the King
To join the celebration, Oh, hear
the song they sing!
Chorus 2: Holy! Holy! Worthy! Worthy!
Hallelujah to His name!
Holy! Holy! Worthy! Worthy!
Worthy the Lamb that was slain!
Chorus 3: Power and glory and honor,
Praises and riches and wisdom,
Join in the celebration to His name!
Bow down in worship before Him!
Hallelujah to His great name,
Shout hallelujah to the Kings of
kings.
