turn around go back down
back the way you came
cant you see that flash of fire
10 times brighter then the day
and behold a mighty city
broken in the dust again

OH GOD, PRIDE OF MAN
broken in the dust again

turn around go back down
back the way you came
babylon is laid to waste
Egypts buried in her shame

their mighty men are all beaten down
their kings are all fallin in the ways

OH GOD, pride of man
broken in the dust again

turn around go back down
back the way you came
terror is on ever sign
though our leaders are dismayed
all those who place their faith in fire
in fire their fate shall be repayed

OH GOD, pride of man
broken in the dust again

turn around go back down
back the way you came
and shout a warning to the nation
that the soward of god is raised
get babylon backed by its city
rich in treasure wide in fame

OH GOD, pride of man
broken in the dust again

ohhhhhhhhhhhhh
oh oh ohhh

and it shall cause your tower to fall
make of you a pyre of flame
oh you who dwell on many waters
rich in treasure wide in fame
you bow unto your god of gold
your pride of might shall be a shame
for only god can lead his people
back unto the earth again

OH GOD, Pride of man
broken in the dust again

our holy mounatin be restored
and mercy on the people
the people
ahhhhhhh ahhhh

and maybe hope you could love me too

Instrumental

Can you hear it in the morning, it sings the golden song,
I saw his moving ever on the run, from and to the sound of one,
Turning in, turning out, spirals high, never down,
Wonder, wonder wanders, loving, loving lovers,
Freefall, tumbling walls, one world, one one truth,
If if it's above___ life is low, life is slow,
Love is life, it's love, love.
