River of Babylon
By the rivers of Babylon, where we sat down
Yeah, yeah, we wept, when we remembered Zion
By the rivers of Babylon, where we sat down
Yeah, yeah, we wept, when we remembered Zion
When the wicked
Carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
Now, how shall we sing the lord's song in a strange land?
When the wicked
Carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
Now, how shall we sing the lord's song in a strange land?
Let the words of our mouth and the meditations of our heart
Be acceptable in thy sight here tonight
Let the words of our mouth and the meditation of our hearts
Be acceptable in thy sight here tonight
By the rivers of Babylon, where we sat down
Yeah, yeah, we wept, when we remembered Zion
By the rivers of Babylon, where we sat down
Yeah, yeah, we wept, when we remembered Zion
By the rivers of Babylon (tears of Babylon)
There we sat down (together sing that song)
Yeah, yeah, we wept (sing the song love)
When we remember Zion (yeah, yeah, yeah)
By the rivers of Babylon (tears of Babylon)
Where we sat down (heard people cry)
Yeah, yeah, we wept (wept, near the fall)
When we remember Zion (who had the power?)
By the rivers of Babylon (out there)
Where we sat down (hey, na-na-na)
Yeah, yeah, we wept (ooh, yeah)
When we remember Zion (ooh, no)
By the rivers of Babylon (tears of Babylon)
Yeah, yeah, we wept, when we remembered Zion
By the rivers of Babylon, where we sat down
Yeah, yeah, we wept, when we remembered Zion
When the wicked
Carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
Now, how shall we sing the lord's song in a strange land?
When the wicked
Carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
Now, how shall we sing the lord's song in a strange land?
Let the words of our mouth and the meditations of our heart
Be acceptable in thy sight here tonight
Let the words of our mouth and the meditation of our hearts
Be acceptable in thy sight here tonight
By the rivers of Babylon, where we sat down
Yeah, yeah, we wept, when we remembered Zion
By the rivers of Babylon, where we sat down
Yeah, yeah, we wept, when we remembered Zion
By the rivers of Babylon (tears of Babylon)
There we sat down (together sing that song)
Yeah, yeah, we wept (sing the song love)
When we remember Zion (yeah, yeah, yeah)
By the rivers of Babylon (tears of Babylon)
Where we sat down (heard people cry)
Yeah, yeah, we wept (wept, near the fall)
When we remember Zion (who had the power?)
By the rivers of Babylon (out there)
Where we sat down (hey, na-na-na)
Yeah, yeah, we wept (ooh, yeah)
When we remember Zion (ooh, no)
By the rivers of Babylon (tears of Babylon)
