Don Moen's song 'The Earth Shakes' is a powerful worship anthem that declares God's supreme authority over all nations and idols. The lyrics emphasize that the earth trembles at God's voice, and that human idols fall before Him. The song portrays God as a mighty warrior, a gracious Savior, and a compassionate Father, who gives His people power and authority to overcome spiritual strongholds. It celebrates the victory of God's kingdom, with Jesus reigning as King forever. The repeated imagery of Babylon falling underscores the defeat of evil and the triumph of God's rule, inspiring believers to trust in His strength and shout in faith.

The Earth shakes at the sound of His voice
The nations tremble before Him
The idols of men are all falling
At the feet of the LORD our God
At the feet of the LORD our God
The Lord is warrior; fearless is He
The Lord is mighty in battle
His armies outnumber His enemies
When they shout the strongholds of Satan come crashing down!
And Babylon is falling, falling down!
The Lord is a Saviour; gracious is He
The Lord is full of compassion
His army is also His family
When they shout the strongholds of Satan come crashing down!
And Babylon is falling, falling down!
The Lord has a kingdom; Jesus is King
He reigns forever and ever!
He's given us power and authority
When we shout the strongholds of Satan come crashing down!
And Babylon is falling, falling down!
The Earth shakes at the sound of His voice
The nations tremble before Him
The idols of men are all falling
At the feet of the LORD our God
At the feet of the LORD our God
