Lyric
By the rivers of Babylon,
there we sat down
yeeah we wept,
when we remembered Zion.
By the rivers of Babylon,
there we sat down
yeeah 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 mouths
and the meditations of our hear
By the rivers of Babylon,
there we sat down
yeeah we wept,
when we remembered Zion.
