The Love Of Jesus Revelation Chapter 9
Jesus Christ and one of his friends, a locust with a scorpion’s tail, a human face, and a crown of gold, from the New Testament’s Book of Revelation Chapter 9
The Lyrics:
Jesus loves me
This I know,
For the Bible tells me so.
The Bible also tells me
In the Book of Revelation
The fifth angel of God will play his trumpet.
A star from heaven will fall to the earth.
The angel of God will open the bottomless pit.
Smoke will come out of the pit.
Until the sun and the sky become dark.
And Jesus will be there.
The love of Jesus
Is being tortured for five months
By monsters who sting you
Until you want to die!
Out of the smoke will come locusts
that look like horses prepared for battle.
On their heads will be crowns of gold.
Their faces will be like the faces of men.
Their hair will be like the hair of women.
Their teeth will be like the teeth of lions.
They will have breastplates of iron.
The sound of their wings will be like the sound of horses rushing to battle.
They will have tails like scorpions with stings.
And Jesus will be there.
The love of Jesus
Is being tortured for five months
By monsters who sting you
Until you want to die!
The angel of God will tell the locusts
Not to hurt the grass of the earth, nor any tree.
The Angel of God will tell the locusts only to hurt the people
who do not have the approval of God.
The angel of God will not allow the locusts to kill anyone.
The angel of God will tell the locusts to torture people for five months
with stings that hurt like scorpion stings.
The torture will be so bad,
everyone will look for a way to die.
Yet death will flee from them.
And Jesus will be there.
The love of Jesus
Is being tortured for five months
By monsters who sting you
Until you want to die!
Jesus loves me
This I know,
For the Bible tells me so.
Does Jesus love me enough
To save me from the torture?
Does God approve of me
Or will I be tortured by monsters
While Jesus watches?
The love of Jesus
Is being tortured for five months
By monsters who sting you
Until you want to die!
That’s the love of Jesus.
I am afraid
of the love of Jesus.
Praying with Jesus to the Christian torture locust of Chapter 9 of the Book of Revelation
The text of the Bible’s Book of Revelation Chapter 9 story of the Angel of God blowing the fifth trumpet:
Then the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star from heaven which had fallen to the earth; and the key of the bottomless pit was given to him. He opened the bottomless pit, and smoke went up out of the pit, like the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by the smoke of the pit. Then out of the smoke came locusts upon the earth, and power was given them, as the scorpions of the earth have power. They were told not to hurt the grass of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree, but only the men who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads. And they were not permitted to kill anyone, but to torment for five months; and their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it stings a man. And in those days men will seek death and will not find it; they will long to die, and death flees from them.
The appearance of the locusts was like horses prepared for battle; and on their heads appeared to be crowns like gold, and their faces were like the faces of men. They had hair like the hair of women, and their teeth were like the teeth of lions. They had breastplates like breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots, of many horses rushing to battle. They have tails like scorpions, and stings; and in their tails is their power to hurt men for five months. They have as king over them, the angel of the abyss; his name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in the Greek he has the name Apollyon.
