Turn around go back down |
|
Back the way you came |
|
Can't you see that flash of fire10 times brighter than the day |
|
And behold a mighty city |
|
Broken in the dust again |
|
Oh God, pride of man |
|
Broken in the dust again |
|
Turn around go back down |
|
Back the way you came |
|
Babylon is laid to waste |
|
Egypt's buried in her shame |
|
Their mighty men are all beaten down |
|
Their kings are all fallin' in the ways |
|
Oh God, pride of man |
|
Broken in the dust again |
|
Turn around go back down |
|
Back the way you came |
|
Terror is on ever sign |
|
Though our leaders are dismayed |
|
All those who place their faith in fire |
|
In fire their fate shall be repayed |
|
Oh God, pride of man |
|
Broken in the dust again |
|
Turn around go back down |
|
Back the way you came |
|
And shout a warning to the nation |
|
That the sword of |
|
God is raised |
|
Yes, Babylon backed by it's city |
|
Rich in treasure wide in fame |
|
Oh God, pride of man |
|
Broken in the dust again |
|
And it shall cause your tower to fall |
|
Make of you a pyre of flame |
|
Oh, you who dwell on many waters |
|
Rich in treasure wide in fame |
|
You bow unto your, your god of gold |
|
Your pride of might shall be a shame |
|
For only God can lead his people |
|
Back unto the earth again |
|
Oh God, pride of man |
|
Broken in the dust again |
|
Our holy mountain be restored |
|
And mercy on that people |
|
That people |
