Hail the day so long expected Hail the year of full release Zion’s walls are now erected And her watchmen publish peace Through our England’s wide dominion Shrill the trumpets loudly roar Babylon is fallen, is fallen, is fallen Babylon is fallen to rise no more
All her merchants stand with wonder What is this that comes to past Murmuring like the distant thunder Crying O alas alas Swell the sound ye kings and nobles Priest and people rich and poor Babylon is fallen, is fallen, is fallen Babylon is fallen to rise no more
Blow the trumpet in Mount Zion Christ shall come the second time Ruling with a rod of iron All who now as foes combine Babel's garments we’ve rejected And our fellowship is o’er Babylon is fallen, is fallen, is fallen Babylon is fallen to rise no more
Tune your harps ye heavenly choirs Shout ye followers of the lamb See the city all on fire Clap your hands and swell the flame Now's the day of compensation Hope of mercy now is o'er Babylon is fallen, is fallen, is fallen Babylon is fallen to rise no more
