The Shepard's Grace

I saw four angels stand at the corners of the earth
They were holding back the waves that flowed
So that no breeze should gust on the earth or the sea
Not even on a single tree

Then I saw another angel coming up from the east
With a seal of the living God
And he called out in a loud voice
To the four angels of God's choice

And he said, do not harm the earth
And do not harm the sea
Until we mark ourselves with the seal of victory
A hundred and forty-four thousand will be marked upon their head
Twelve thousand each from the tribes of Israel bred

After this I looked and saw an enormous crowd
No one could count all the people
From every tribe, nation and tongue
In front of God's throne, yeah everyone

They were dressed in white robes
Palm branches in their hand
And they called out in a loud voice
And they said
Salvation comes from the land
And from the throne of God
The great I Am

Then I asked one of the elders
Who are these people here?
I really am confused, sir
So please tell me I won't fear
He answered me saying they've safely come
Through the trials of the great I Am
For they have been cleansed by the blood of the Lamb

And they stand before God's throne
And they serve Him day and night
He will protect them with His presence
Never again will they hunger or thirst
The scorching of the sun on their skin will be blessed
Because the Lamb who is in the center of the throne
Will guide them and be their shepherd
Living modest they will fight and have no fear
And God will wipe away from their eyes every tear
God will wipe away from their eyes every tear
