Music & Lyrics: Phillip Johnson
"FOUR HORSES"

Chorus
Four horses through history run,
To the battle of Armageddon,
One blood red, one black as night,
One pale gray, & one pure white.
These four horses are the spiritual forces
Of the unseen world.
Verse 1
On the black horse rides a merchant man,
The balance of deceit is in his hand.
[Don't mess with the money horse.]
Money rides the black horse!
Verse 2
On the red horse, with a sword in his hand,
Rides the captain of war, takin' peace from the land.
[Don't mess with the war horse.]
War rides the red horse.
Chorus 2
Four horses through history run,
To the battle of Armageddon,
One blood red, one black as night,
One pale gray, & one pure white.
These four horses are the spiritual forces
Of the unseen world.
Verse 3
Death is the rider on the pale gray horse,
And Hell follows closely on his course.
[Don't mess with the death horse.]
Death rides the gray horse.
Verse 4
The conquering King on the horse that's white
Will defeat His foes in an awesome fight.
Jesus rides the white horse.
Love is the great force.

Place your bets on the right horse.
No regrets on the white horse.
Place your bets on the right horse.
Get the best with the white horse.
