Joe Nichols - Revelation Lyrics
Somewhere in Vietnama nineteen year old soldier stumbled from a bar roomhe said I must be seeing thingsthat bourbon hit me like a baseball batIn Belfast, Ireland a little lady dropped her shovel in her gardenas she raced across her yard to ask her neighbor Mrs. Clancy"what was that?"In Memphis, Tennesse a teacher raised the window closest to the riverand the children in her classroom swore they heard a choir singin down the streetIn Washington, D.C. a private secretary's lips began to quiverand the President just put aside some papers and rose quickly to his feetI lay in a cheap motel in the arms of someone else's womanwhen a loud explosion rocked the room and turned the morning into nightI jumped out of bed and ran into the street with hardly any clothes onand as the sky lit up my heart stood still and I could feel my face turn whiteAll at once the clouds rolled back and there stood Jesus Christ in all his gloryand I realized the saddest eyes I'd ever seen were lookin straight at meI guess I was awakened by the penetrating sound of my own screamingit didn't take me long to stumble out of bed and fall down on my kneesas tears rolled down my face I cried "Dear God I'm thankful I was only dreaming.If I never go to hell Lord its because you scared it out of me."
