Singing the Songs of Revelation

There are nine — at least by one count — songs in Revelation, songs of praise to and about God that give the seven churches hope in the midst of the Roman empire.

Revelation 4:8-11; 5:8-14; 7:9-12; 11:15-18; 12:10-12; 15:3-4; 16:5-7; 19:1-4; 19:5-8

These songs are songs of praise, songs of protest, songs of resistance, and songs of community-forming hope.…
