John the Revelator by Curtis Stigers & The Forest Rangers

Hello!

Hope you are having a GREAT start to your 2018!  It's hard to believe we are over a month in already!

-------------------

Back in the day—I spent time as a guitarist and singer playing music in restaurants, coffee houses, and bars—and loved the sound of the blues—and played a lot of it in solo shows and with the bands I was in.

My tastes in music have changed a lot since then—and I much prefer Gospel music today—but love it when those tastes combine.

This morning I heard John the Revelator by Curtis Stigers & The Forest Rangers—a song used on a TV show (I've never seen) called Sons of Anarchy.


As I've written in the past—God can use anything to speak about Himself—and in this case I LOVE that this old blues song talks about the resurrection of Jesus, John—the writer of the Bible's Book Of Revelation, the 12 disciples of Jesus, as well as Mary and Martha, and even the first man—Adam—in a real way with without any apologies.

Plus—I just love the bluesy feel of the entire track.  : )

I hope you'll give this one a listen—and that it will Bless you and fill your heart with God's LOVE! 

Lyrics are included in the video—and also embedded below




John the Revelator - Lyrics

Who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Wrote the book of the seven seals

You know God walked down in the cool of the day
Called Adam by his name
But he refused to answer
Because he was naked and ashamed

Tell me who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Wrote the book of the seven seals

Now—Christ had twelve apostles
And three he led away
He said, "Watch with me one hour,
While I go yonder and pray."

Tell me who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Tell me who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Wrote the book of the seven seals

Well, Christ rose on Easter morning!
Mary and Martha came down to see
He said, "Go tell my disciples—
Meet me in Galilee."

Tell me who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Tell me who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Wrote the book of the seven seals

Tell me who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Tell me who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Wrote the book of the seven seals

God walked down in the cool of the day
Called Adam by his name
He refused to answer
Because he was naked and ashamed

Tell me who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Tell me who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Wrote the book of the seven seals

Tell me who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Tell me who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Who's that writin'? John the Revelator
Wrote the book of the seven seals
