To Ephesus, you first did write,
"Remember love, your first delight.
Yet, hold fast to what is true,
For I am always watching you."
In Smyrna's trials and poverty,
"You're rich in faith, so do not fear.
Be faithful till your life is done,
And you'll receive the victor's crown."
Seven letters to the churches,
Seven stars in His right hand.
Messages of hope and warning,
God's eternal, sovereign plan.
To Pergamum, where Satan's throne,
"Repent and turn to Me alone.
Hold fast My name, don't compromise,
My hidden manna will suffice."
Thyatira's deeds of love and faith,
Yet tolerance of Jezebel's ways.
"Repent, or I will come in wrath,
But to the rest, hold to your path."
Seven letters to the churches,
Seven stars in His right hand.
Messages of hope and warning,
God's eternal, sovereign plan.
Sardis, wake from deathly sleep,
Philadelphia, your faith keep,
And Laodicea, hear my plea,
Be zealous and repent to me.
To him who overcomes the night,
I'll grant to eat from the tree of life.
A pillar in God's holy place,
And on them, write My new name's grace.
Seven letters to the churches,
Seven stars in His right hand.
Messages of hope and warning,
God's eternal, sovereign plan.
He who has an ear, let him hear,
What the Spirit says to churches clear.
The Alpha, Omega's, loving call,
Embrace His grace and stand tall.
To Ephesus, you first did write,
"Remember love, your first delight.
Yet, hold fast to what is true,
For I am always watching you."
