[Verse 1]
Hail the day so long expected
Hail the year of full release
Zion's walls are now erected
And her watchmen publish peace
Throughout Shilo's wide dominion
See the brazen trumpets roar

[Chorus]
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!

[Verse 2]
Hark, and hear her people crying
"See the city disappear!
Trade and traffic all are dying!
Lo, we sink and perish here!"
Sailors who have bought her traffic
Crying from the distant shore

[Chorus]
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!
[Verse 3]
All her merchants cry with wonder
"What is this that's come to pass?"
Murm'ring like the distant thunder
Crying out, "Alas! Alas!"
Swell the sound, ye kings and nobles!
Priests and people, rich and poor!

[Chorus]
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!

[Verse 4]
Lo, the captives are returning
Up to Zion, see them fly
While the smoke of Babel's burning
Rolls across the darkened sky
Days of mourning now are ended
Years of bondage now are o'er

[Chorus]
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!
[Verse 5]
Zion's children, raise your voices
And the joyful news proclaim
How the heavenly host rejoices
Shout and echo back the same
See the ancients of the city
Terrify'd at the uproar

[Chorus]
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!

[Verse 6]
Tune your harps, ye heavenly choir
Shout, ye followers of the Lamb
See the city all on fire
Clap your hands and blow the flame
Now's the day of compensation
On the scarlet colour'd whore

[Chorus]
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!
