Daniel O'Donnell – Rivers Of Babylon lyrics
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.

(So let the wicked) carried us away in captivity
Requiring from us a song
Now how can we sing the Lord's song
In a strange land.

(So let the wicked) carried us away in captivity
Requiring from us a song
Now how can we sing the Lord's 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...
