By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
There we wept
When we remembered Zion
For the wicked
Carried us away captivity
Requiring from us a song
How can we sing a song of joy in a
strange land (repeat)
So let the
Words of our mouths
and the meditations of our hearts
be acceptable in Thy sight
here tonight (repeat)
By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
There we wept
When we remembered Zion (repeat..etc.)
