The beast arises up from the sea
Seven heads and ten horns has he
Each head bears the name of blasphemy
Like a leopard, he stands in the sun
Feet like a bear, mouth like a lion
Power, seat, authority of the dragon
A head wound death deals
Miraculously heals
All the world wonders what this reveals
The damned
Worship the dragon
Who powers the beast
The damned
Worship the dragon
Whose power’s increased
Forty-two months in power, he’s given
To devour all that’s holy, he is driven
A war cry against God’s command
To defeat the saints of the Lamb
A bow to the beast from all who the damned
Names not found in the book of life
Names blotted out in sin and strife
Names not remembered within the Lamb’s wife
Lead into bondage, leave in restraints
Live by the sword, by the sword one faints
Here is the patience and the faith of the saints
Don’t
Worship the dragon
Who powers the beast
Don’t
Worship the dragon
Whose power’s increased
Forty-two months in power, he’s given
To devour all that’s holy, he is driver
Another beast from the land was sprung
Horned like a lamb with a dragon’s tongue
With all the world’s hearts together strung
All the powers of the first to exercise
Commanding fire to strike from the skies
Performing miracles, perpetuating lies
An image to the beast speaks great things
But it’s the dragon pulling the strings
Bow to the image or death, it brings
The damned
Worship the dragon
Who powers the beast
The damned
Worship the dragon
Whose power’s increased
Forty-two months in power, he’s given
To devour all that’s holy, he is driven
A mark he causeth all
Rich, poor, free, bond, great and small
In forehead or right hand to install
Without which none can buy or sell
The name, the number, or the mark of hell
Here is wisdom, listen well
Count the number of the beast for it is
The number of a man and the number that’s his
Is six hundred, threescore, and six
