The scarlet beast prepares to go to war
To bring an end to Babylon the Great.
She has been ruling since the days of yore,
But soon she's going to meet a frightful fate.
It will expose her deeds as vile and cruel—
The many sins that stain her garish gown.
The beast will turn on her and end her rule,
And she'll receive no aid when trampled down.
Yet brief will be that dark and fearsome day;
The loyal will reveal with whom they stand.
It will not be the kings whom they'll obey;
Their knees will bend to God's almighty hand.
O sinful Babylon, your end is near!
So sip your last red wine, then quake with fear.
“Seek Jehovah, all you meek ones!” ― Zephaniah 2:3
