Lyrics

[Chorus]
By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
And there we wept
When we remembered Zion
[Chorus]
By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
And there we wept
When we remembered Zion
[Verse 1]
'Cause the wicked carried us away, captivity
Then required of us a song
How shall we sing the Lord's song in a strange land?
'Cause the wicked carried us away, captivity
Then required of us a song
Now how shall we sing the Lord's song in a strange land?
[Verse 2]
So let the words of our mouth
And the meditation of our heart
Be acceptable in thy sight, oh Lord
[Chorus]
By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
And there we wept
When we remembered Zion
[Verse 3]
'Cause the wicked carried us away, captivity
Required from us a song
How can we sing the songs of the Lord in a strange land?
[Verse 4]
So let the words of our mouth
And the meditation of our heart
Be acceptable in thy sight, oh Lord
