LYRICS

Dead before the record book
All the universe to look
Point by point their deeds inscribed
Book of life, then opened wide
Sea, death, Hell gave up their dead
Dirty secrets all were read
Souls were judged what they’d done
They had nowhere left to run

Chorus:

​

Heaven and earth fled before Him
The One on the great white throne
No one can stand in His awesome presence alone
Only the white, white robe of the Savior
Only the pure, pure heavenly favor
Only the pure white robe stands before the great white throne

Sin and sinners gone at last
Death and hell into fire were cast
Second death—but don’t you die
Are you in the book of life?

Chorus

Only the pure, white robe
Stands before the great white throne

Dead before the record book
All the universe to look
Point by point their deeds inscribed
Book of life, then opened wide
