| Lyrics:William J.Gaither Music:William J.Gaither | |
| Oh well, I, John, he saw might numbers | |
| A way up in the middle of the air | |
| I, John he saw might numbers | |
| Way in the middle of the air | |
| Got to mighty move, John, you saw mighty numbers | |
| Way up in the middle of the air | |
| Well there were three gates in the east | |
| And there were three gates in the west | |
| Three gates in the north | |
| Three gates in the south | |
| And that makes twelve gates to the city all square wide | |
| John, you saw might numbers way up in the middle of the air | |
| Well John declared that he saw a man | |
| He held twelve bright stars in his right hand | |
| Well his eyes flashed fire like the burning sun | |
| Old John got scared and he wanted to run | |
| Well he wanted to run but his feet wouldn't go | |
| Cause he felt the gospel cutting like a two-edged sword | |
| And he heard a voice that said John, you take a look | |
| And read what you see and then you write it in a book | |
| And he saw twelve angels in the east | |
| And there were twelve angels in the west | |
| Twelve angels in the north, | |
| Twelve angels in the south | |
| That's a total of forty-eight angels to the city, four squared wide |
