By the rivers of Babylon

Where we sat down

Yeah  we wept

When we remembered Zion
By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
And where we wept

When we remembered Zion

When the wicked carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
How shall we sing the Lord's song
In a strange land

When the wicked carried us away in captivity
Requiring of us a song
Now how shall we sing the Lord's song
In a strange land

Let the words of our mouth
And the meditation 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
