144.000 Lyrics - Singles - Roy Acuff

There's a book in the Bible 'twas written by John 

It's called 'Revelation, the new light of dawn' 

And it tells of a kingdom he found in a prayer 

And a hundred and forty four thousand were there 

They were saved from bandage and shackles of hurt 

They were dressed in white robe and found a new word 

They were true Christian mortals like you and like me 

But a hundred and forty four thousand were free 

Just a hundred and forty four thousand to sing 

And to shout Hallelujah and praise to the King 

Oh my brother, be careful and never do wrong 

And you may learn the words of that beautiful song 

Every night to my maker I solemnly pray 

That my name will be added and someday there may 

Be a hundred and forty four thousand and one 

When I proved myself worthy for Him to call son
