By the rivers of Babylon

There we sat down

Ye-eah we wept

When we remembered Zion

By the rivers of Babylon

There we sat down

Ye-eah 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

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

By the rivers of Babylon

There we sat down

Ye-eah we wept

When we remembered Zion

By the rivers of Babylon

There we sat down

Ye-eah we wept

When we remembered Zion

By the rivers of Babylon

There we sat down

Ye-eah we wept
