When I think of all the bitter times I've had,
oh God, it does make me sad.
Oh, no, it doesn't bother me.
Strength and honor is all I see.
But, oh, give thanks unto the Almighty God.
He showed me what I had, He said.
Stand firm and keep the faith, oh,
your reward shall be great.
So now I see the day,
when I'm stepping out of Babylon in New Jerusalem,
in Mount Zion.
I'm stepping out of Babylon in New Jerusalem,
in Mount Zion.
Stepping out of Babylon one by one.
Stepping in Mount Zion.
Stepping, stepping,
stepping out of Babylon.
Stepping,
stepping,
stepping out of Babylon.
I've got no
alternative in our Babylon.
But
I know,
yes I know,
there's a Mount Zion But oh, someday
his children will find the
way
So get up, get up, and don't let the devil
lead you astray
Stepping out of Babylon in New Jerusalem,
in Mount Zion
Stepping out of Babylon one by one,
stepping in Mount Zion
Stepping, stepping, stepping out of Babylon
Oh,
give thanks unto the Almighty God He showed me what I had,
He said
Stand firm and keep the faith Oh,
your reward shall be great
So now I see the day When I'm stepping
out of Babylon in New Jerusalem,
in Mount Zion
Stepping out of Babylon one by one,
stepping
in Mount Zion
