8. Babylon (7:00)
You conjured darkness and led the nations astray
Your magic spell has them deceived, they believe what you say
She has become a home for demons and evil things
Madly the people drink the wine of her adulteries
She boasts "Huh I sit as queen, I have great wealth, riches and luxury
I'm not a widow, I'll never mourn"
But plagues will overtake you, your empire will never live on
Come out of her, my people, don't share her sins
You'll reap with her destruction and terror she brings
Her sins are piled to Heaven, a mountain to the sky
With Her wealth comes corruption, it's nothing but a lie
Can't you see your hate of God will be your fall?
The earthly treasures amount to nothing at all
Her lust for power has cracked the very heart of life
Woe Babylon, God has remembered your crimes
Her wealth and splendour has led the nations astray
Inside Her wills is found the blood of prophets and saints
Great peals of thunder will roar, as She's thrown down
Consumed in fire, Almighty God will remove Her crown
Evil will not stand this Holy hour, engulfed in flames
Sulphur burning bright with power, God will steal your fate
No matter how hard you try, there's nowhere to run
Woe Babylon, in one hour your doom has come
Your magic spell has them deceived, they believe what you say
She has become a home for demons and evil things
Madly the people drink the wine of her adulteries
She boasts "Huh I sit as queen, I have great wealth, riches and luxury
I'm not a widow, I'll never mourn"
But plagues will overtake you, your empire will never live on
Come out of her, my people, don't share her sins
You'll reap with her destruction and terror she brings
Her sins are piled to Heaven, a mountain to the sky
With Her wealth comes corruption, it's nothing but a lie
Can't you see your hate of God will be your fall?
The earthly treasures amount to nothing at all
Her lust for power has cracked the very heart of life
Woe Babylon, God has remembered your crimes
Her wealth and splendour has led the nations astray
Inside Her wills is found the blood of prophets and saints
Great peals of thunder will roar, as She's thrown down
Consumed in fire, Almighty God will remove Her crown
Evil will not stand this Holy hour, engulfed in flames
Sulphur burning bright with power, God will steal your fate
No matter how hard you try, there's nowhere to run
Woe Babylon, in one hour your doom has come
