Version 1 of the lyrics

1  Turn around go back down,     back the way you came   Turn around go back down go back the way you came 1
2  Can't you see that flash of fire ten times brighter than the day   Can't you see the flash of fire ten times brighter than the day 2
  And behold the mighty city broken in the dust again  And behold the mighty city broken in the dust again
3  Oh God! The pride of man broken in the dust again   Oh God the pride of man broken in the dust again 3
4                                                                 Turn around go back down go back the way you came 4
1  Turn around go back down, back the way you came   1
  Babylon is laid to waste Egypt's buried in her shame  Babylon is laid to waste Egypt's buried in her shame
5  Their mighty men are beaten down, the kings are fallen in the ways   Their mighty men are beaten down the kings are fallen in the ways 5
6  Oh God! The pride of man broken in the dust again   Oh God the pride of man broken in the dust again 6
      
7  Turn around go back down,     back the way you came   Turn around go back down go back the way you came 7
8  Terror is on every side though the leaders are dismayed   Terror is on everyside       though the leaders are dismayed 8
9  Those who put their faith in fire, in fire their faith shall be repaid   Those who put their faith in fire in fire their faith shall be repaid 9
10  Oh God! The pride of man broken in the dust again   Oh God the pride of man broken in the dust again 10
      
11  Turn around go back down,     back the way you came   Turn around go back down go back the way you came 11
12  Shout a warning to the nations that the sword of God is raised   Shout a warning to the nations that the sword of god is raised 12
  On Babylon that mighty city rich in treasure wide in fame  On Babylon that mighty city rich in treasure wide in fame
13  It shall cause thy towers to fall,      make it be a pyre of flame   It shall cause thy towers to fall and make it be a pyre of flame 13
14  Oh God! The pride of man broken in the dust again   Oh God the pride of man broken in the dust again 14
      
  Thou that dwell on many water rich in treasure wide in fame  Thou that dwell on many water rich in treasure wide in fame
15  Bow unto a God of gold Thy pride of might shall be Thy shame   Bow unto a god of gold thy pride of might shall be thy shame 15
16  Oh God! The pride of man broken in the dust again   Oh God the pride of man broken in the dust again 16
      
17  And only God can lead the people back into the earth again   And only God can lead the people back into the faith again 17
18  Thy holy mountain be restored, Thy mercy on Thy people Lord   Thy holy mountain be restored thy mercy on thy people Lord 18
