Babylon Is Fallen

Em

[Verse 1]
Em
Hail the day so long expected, hail 
the year of full release
Em
Zion’s walls are now erected, and 
their watch heads publish peace
            G               Em    
Through our child’s white 
                          D
dominion, hear the trumpet loudly 
roar

[Chorus]
           Em
Babylon is fallen, it’s fallen, it’s
 fallen
                         C       
Babylon is fallen, it’ll rise no 
Em
more

[Verse 2]
Em
All her merchants stand with wonder,
 what is this that comes to pass?
Em
Murmuring like the distant thunder, 
and crying ‘oh alas alas’

          G                  
Swell the sound you kings and 
 Em                                
nobles, priests and people rich and
  D
 poor

[Chorus]
           Em
Babylon is fallen, it’s fallen, it’s
 fallen
                         C       
Babylon is fallen, it’ll rise no

[Verse 3]
Em
Blow the trumpet on Mount Zion, for 
the kings are all brought down
Em
Who once ruled with rods of iron, 
and wore our fortunes on their crown
        G                Em       
Fables, garments we’ve rejected, 
                         D
and they’ll find us never more

[Chorus]
           Em
Babylon is fallen, it’s fallen, it’s
 fallen
                         C       
Babylon is fallen, it’ll rise no 
Em

[Verse 4]
Em                                
Like the river carves the valley, 
                 C         Em
and the oak tree dulls the axe
Em
Like the moss tears down the palace,
 while the fallen turn to grass
         G               Em       
Like the storm’s distant warning, 
                       D
is but a ripple on the shore

[Chorus]
           Em
Babylon is fallen, it’s fallen, it’s
 fallen

Babylon is fallen, it’ll rise no 
more

Em
Babylon is fallen, it’s fallen, it’s
 fallen
                         D       
Babylon is fallen, it’ll rise no 
Em
