God Came Down To Babel

God Came Down to Babel Building a tower to the moon All singing the same selfish tune. Not seeing what is the matter Staying together choosing not to scatter Greedy and faithless they chose to a man To decide on their own and not follow God's plan. So when you decide that you know what is best That your dollar is worth more than all of the rest That loving yourself is plenty enough That God and your neighbor are just so much stuff Think where would we be what would we find If we were all still in one town of one narrow mind. There would be no joy there would be no merriment It would have been the end to God's little experiment
