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
