Ten Times by Jon Williams Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2004

TEN TIMES BETTER THAN THE BEST

[Spoken Word]
“Babylon” is a subtle system
“It” is anything that oppresses mankind
Like low self-esteem or superiority complex

[Chorus]
For My Glory to fill the earth
You have to bring down the systems of Babylon
For Babylon to crumble and fall
You have to be ten times better than the best

[Chorus]
For My Glory to fill the earth
You have to bring down the systems of Babylon
For Babylon to crumble and fall
You have to be ten times better than the best

[Chorus]
For My Glory to fill the earth
(For My Glory)
You have to bring down the systems of Babylon
For Babylon to crumble and fall
You have to be ten times better than the best
(Ten times)
[Chorus]
For My Glory to fill the earth
You have to bring down the systems of Babylon
For Babylon to crumble and fall
You have to be ten times better than the best

[Verse 1]
Listen
Who shall I send, to topple the systems of men
To render unto Babylon her rightful due (Her rightful due)
You must meet these requirements (Oooooh)
Commitment to excellence
Be pure in heart, consistently righteous and diligent
(Whoooooo)

[Chorus]
For My Glory to fill the earth
(Yes)
You have to bring down the systems of Babylon
(Bring down the systems of Babylon)
For Babylon to crumble and fall
You have to be ten times better than the best (For My Glory)

[Chorus]
For My Glory to fill the earth
(Yes, for My glory)
You have to bring down the systems of Babylon
(Bring down the systems of Babylon)
For Babylon to crumble and fall
You have to be ten times better than the best (For My Glory)
[Verse 2]
Who will respond, to My eternal call
Who shall ascend to Jerusalem, to rebuild its walls
Embrace the experience
Stay committed to the very end
Execution with precision, and reflexive obedience

[Chorus]
For My Glory to fill the earth
(Yes, for My glory)
You have to bring down the systems of Babylon
(Bring down the systems of Babylon)
For Babylon to crumble and fall
You have to be ten times better than the best (Ten times better)

[Chorus]
For My Glory to fill the earth
(Yes, for My glory)
You have to bring down the systems of Babylon
(Bring down the systems of Babylon)
For Babylon to crumble and fall
You have to be ten times better than the best (For My Glory)

[Verse 3]
You are My people, whose hearts have been reformed
So walk right into Babylon, and make that system fall
You have My knowledge, wisdom and understanding
(Oooooh)
So take Babylon down
(Whooooooooo)
Bring her high places right down to the ground
[Chorus]
For My Glory to fill the earth
(Yes, for My glory)
You have to bring down the systems of Babylon
For Babylon to crumble and fall
You have to be ten times better than the best (For My Glory)
(Ten times, ten times)

[Chorus]
For My Glory to fill the earth
(Yes, for My glory)
You have to bring down the systems of Babylon
For Babylon to crumble and fall
You have to be ten times better than the best (For My Glory)
(So much better)

[Spoken Word]
“Babylon” is a subtle system. It creeps up on you
“Babylon” can find its ways into our systems of learning, in our schools, in our universities, where rational thinking is elevated above God
“Babylon” is things such as back-biting, envies, jealousies, ‘tear-down’ mentalities
You know, if you do me something, I have to do you something back”
Subtle system!

[Chorus]
For My Glory to fill the earth
(Yes, for My glory)
You have to bring down the systems of Babylon
(Bring down the systems of Babylon)
For Babylon to crumble and fall
You have to be ten times better than the best (For My Glory)
(Ten times, ten times)

[Chorus]
For My Glory to fill the earth
(Yes, for My glory)
You have to bring down the systems of Babylon
For Babylon to crumble and fall
You have to be ten times better than the best
For My Glory
Bring it down!
