Hail the day so long expected Hail the day of full release Zion's walls are now erected And her watchmen publish peace Throughout Shiloh's wide dominions Hear the trumpet loudly roar:
Babylon is fallen, is fallen, is fallen, Babylon is fallen, to rise no more Babylon is fallen, is fallen, is fallen, Babylon is fallen, to rise no more
All her merchants stand in wonder What is this that comes to pass? Murmuring like the distant thunder, And crying, "Oh alas, alas." Swell the sound, ye kings and nobles, Priests and the people, rich and poor:
Babylon is fallen, is fallen, is fallen, Babylon is fallen, to rise no more Babylon is fallen, is fallen, is fallen, Babylon is fallen, to rise no more
Blow the trumpet in Mount Zion, Christ is come a 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 Babylon is fallen, is fallen, is fallen, Babylon is fallen, to rise no more
Babylon is fallen, is fallen, is fallen, Babylon is fallen, to rise no more Babylon is fallen, is fallen, is fallen, Babylon is fallen, to rise no more
Babylon is fallen, is fallen, is fallen, Babylon is fallen, to rise no more Babylon is fallen, is fallen, is fallen, Babylon is fallen, to rise no more
