Review The Song (3)Print the Lyrics
Hear the words of the Rastaman say:
"Babylon, you throne gone down, gone down;
Babylon, you throne gone down."

Said I hear the words of the Iyaman say:
"Babylon, you throne gone down, gone down;
Babylon, you throne gone down."

/Short instrumental break/
---
And I see the angel with the seven seals say:
"Babylon throne gone down, gone down;
Babylon throne gone down."
---
/Short instrumental break/
---
I say fly away home to Zion (fly away home);
I say fly away home to Zion (fly away home).
One bright morning when my work is over,
Man will fly away home.
---
/Short instrumental break/
---
One bright morning when my work is over,
Man will fly away home.
One bright morning when my work is over,
Man will fly away home.
Say one bright morning when my work is over,
Man will fly away home.

Review about Rasta man chant

An orthodox view | Reviewer: Anonymous | 4/15/09

The story of heaven is stupid, same as the story about holy pope, the keeper of heavens keys. So, whoever believes that most beautifull and powerfull thing in human life, the relligion, is happening in that simple fashion, has a big problem with IQ stats, or the easy way to say - is stupid.



Bob Marley's rant | Reviewer: Brie | 1/13/08

The Babylon throne gone down went down once, a long time ago, like it will go down again. Bob Marley says many things that ring true, except that he directly denies Jesus Christ. Sorry, but technically speaking, this is considered anti-christ. Getting one thing wrong out of a multitude of heartfelt truths may not seem so bad, except when you consider that the water won't kill you, but the 1% arsenic IN the water WILL kill you. Chanting along to Bob Marley's seemingly reasonable lyrics, you may find yourself accidently chanting that "dying and going to heaven in Jesus' name" is stupid. Oops! There's the arsenic. The belief that if people truly love the religion that they practice they will all be swept into heaven despite the fact that they never loved or worshipped God is pretty silly. That water probably tasted great the whole time they drank it, but at the end the arsenic killed them just the same.



live it | Reviewer: last verse | 11/15/07

Here’s something to ponder on. Babylon, you throne gone down, gone down. I used to think that this song was about the system of world government, yet how little i knew. When I listened to Get up, Stand up however there’s the line “we’re sick and tired of your ism-schism game, dying to go to heaven in Jesus name” Yet, can a man who preaches “one love” as a theme throughout all of his, truly inspired, songs, can he actually be bringing down the very God of one love? Is it not more likely that Mr Marley was, just as he said sick and tired of those “Christians” who find salvation in Jesus, but do no more than sit upon church pews week after week and go no further? Or was he sick of the whole “Babylon system” of hierarchical religion (which oppresses its members and looks down on other faiths)?
Hasn’t the throne of Babylon “gone down”? Are we experiencing the great falling away which was prophesied?
Aren’t true followers of Jesus Christ realizing that they carry about within themselves the true church, and as they are the “Body of Christ” they don’t need the church of the Babylon system?
Perhaps all men of all faiths who truly live their lives in “One Love,” opening their hearts to the truth are in actual fact living in the true Spirit of God.
So long as we continue to label others as Muslim, Christian, Rastafarian, we abide not in the truth, in the fullness of the Spirit of love. “All have sinned and fall short of God.” We are all equal, equal in the sight of God, equal in our fallen nature. Keep listening to the songs for Mr Marley wrote from the heart and his heart was ever-seeking God.
Mr Marley said, “if you listen carefully you will hear,” or as Jesus himself said “whosoever hears these sayings of mine and acts on them, I will liken him to a wise man, which built his house upon a rock.” Listen then with your heart and the truth will continually speak to you, call to you. Be not deceived, “A man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest” (Paul Simon) If you desire in your heart to know God, to know the truth, then He will give you ears with which to hear, He will speak to your heart, and you will “let love come flooding in.”
If you want to debate it all your life then you are free to do so. Likewise, if you want to live for love and be the blessed servant of God (as did Mr Marley) then make that your hearts desire instead. Tell Him.
In the line following, “We know when we understand, a mighty God is a living man,” it’s possible that Mr Marley was simply re-phrasing, paraphrasing Jesus’ own words when He said, “You know not what manner of Spirit you are from.” Mr Marley is telling us that he too is merely a man, a man who did his best to walk with the Lord, perhaps. But we need to understand this clearly. We need to understand it in our hearts, in the Spirit of love. Else we fail to see that by truly living for Jesus, by being completely immersed in his Spirit, we will not realise that we are of THAT Spirit. Once you understand it, you see. Once you understand it, once you walk it like you talk it, then you can realise that in a living man, mighty God can be all you ever desire.
When you live wholly, completely for love, you have then given your life to it. And when you give your life to Jesus you give your life back to God, to love where it belongs. When people are wholly living in Jesus, then all that people around them can really see is Jesus shining through – they just don’t know that that’s what they see. Perhaps they think they can see a good man, a holy man, but a man wise in humility knows that that’s not the case, that that’s not the truth. Once you have accepted the fullness of the Spirit of love, then you will see that “a mighty God is a living man.” We don’t/wont become individual gods. We don’t become great in ourselves. But the light and glory of God in us.
I hope and pray that this may be helpful.
