Rivers of Babylon

By the rivers of Babylon
There we sat down
And there we wept
When we remember Zion
By the rivers of Babylon
There we sat down
And there we wept
When we remembered Zion

For there, they that carried us away captivity
Requiring of us a song
Now, how shall we sing
The Lord's song in strange land ?
For there, they that carried us away captivity
Requiring of us a song
Now, how shall we sing
The Lord's song in strange land ?

Let the words of our mouths
And the meditation of our hearts
Be acceptable in thy
Sight here tonight
Let the words of our mouths
And the meditations of our hearts
Be acceptable in thy sight here tonight
