When I think of all the bitter times I've had
O God it doesn't make me sad
Oh no it doesn't bother me
Strength and honor is all I see
O give thanks unto the Almighty God
He showed me what I had
He said stand firm and keep the faith
O Your reward shall be great
So now I see the day
When I'm stepping out of Babylon
In New Jerusalem in Mount Zion
Now I'm stepping out of Babylon
In New Jerusalem in Mount Zion
Stepping out of Babylon one by one
Stepping 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 a Babylon
But I know yes, I know there's a Mount Zion
But oh some day 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, in New Jerusalem
In Mount Zion
Stepping out of Babylon one by one
Stepping 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
Stepping, stepping, stepping out of Babylon
O give thanks unto the Almighty God
He showed me what I had
He said stand firm and keep the faith
O 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)
Oh, what a glorious day I see
Oh, what a beautiful day I see
When I'm stepping in the gates of the new Jerusalem, oh...
Sing it, sing it, sing, sing a Zion
