I know your deeds, I've seen your service I recognize the reputation of your lives But I know you live near Satan's shadow And I have seen your faithful struggles to survive
And to the one who overcomes I'll give the manna He'll have a pure white stone with his own secret name She will possess the morning star in all its splendor All this and more for them because they overcame All this and more for them because they overcame
So just hold on, do not grow weary For I am He who searches hearts and minds Behold I'm standing at the door and I am knocking And the one who hears and opens it will find
That the one who overcomes will rule the nations On the throne he'll sit beside me dressed in white She will become a column in God's holy temple They will all eat freely from the Tree of Life They will all eat freely from the Tree of Life
The overcomers come to understand That they are precious poems printed In the palms of His hands
And to the one who overcomes I'll give the manna He'll have a pure white stone with his own secret name She will possess the morning star in all its splendor All this and more for them because they overcame
And to the one who overcomes I'll give the manna He'll have a pure white stone with his own secret name She will possess the morning star in all its splendor All this and more for them because they overcame All this and more for them because they overcame All this and more for them because they overcame
