Hymn 1:59 [In Gabriel's Hand A Mighty Stone]

________________________________________________
Title:     Hymn 1:59 [In Gabriel's Hand A Mighty Stone]
Author: Isaac Watts [More Titles by Watts]

Babylon fallen, Rev. 18. 20 21.


In Gabriel's hand a mighty stone
Lies, a fair type of Babylon
''Prophets, rejoice, and, all ye saints,
"God shall avenge your long complaints."

He said, and dreadful as he stood,
He sunk the milstone in the flood:
"Thus terribly shall Babel fall;
"Thus, and no more be found at all."
