By the rivers of Babylon, Where we sat down,
And there we wept, When we remembered Zion.
By the rivers of Babylon, Where we sat down,
And there we wept, When we remembered Zion.
chorus
Cuz the wicked carried us away, Captivity required from us a song.
How can we sing King Alfa's song, in a strange land?
Cuz the wicked carried us away, Captivity required from us a song.
How can we sing King Alfa's song, in a strange land?
bridge
So let the words of our mouth, and the meditation of our heart,
Be acceptable in thy sight, Oh, tonight.
So let the words of our mouth, and the meditation of our heart,
Be acceptable in thy sight, Oh, tonight.
