Daniel O'Donnell Lyrics

"Rivers Of Babylon" lyrics


(B. Dowe - F. McHaughton, adapted from Psalm 137:1)

By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
There we wept
When we remembered Zion.

By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
There we wept
When we remembered Zion.

(But the wicked) carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
How can we sing King Alfa song
In a strange land.

('Cause the wicked) carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
How can we sing King Alfa song
In a strange land.

--- Instrumental & hum ---

Let the words of our mouth
And the meditation of our heart
Be acceptable in Thy sight
Here tonight

Let the words of our mouth
And the meditation of our heart
Be acceptable in Thy sight
Here tonight

By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
There we wept
When we remembered Zion.

By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
There we wept
When we remembered Zion.

--- Instrumental & hum ---

By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
There we wept
When we remembered Zion.

By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
There we wept
When we remembered Zion...
