Lyrics Rivers of Babylon - The Melodians

Rivers of Babylon

By the rivers of Babylon
Where he sat down
And there he wept
When he remembered Zion
Oh, the wicked carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
How can we sing King Alpha’s song
In a strange land?
Oh, the wicked carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
How can we sing King Alpha’s song
In a strange land?
So let the words of our mouth
And the meditation of our heart
Be acceptable in Thy sight
Oh, verai!
So let the words of our mouth
And the meditation of our heart
Be acceptable in Thy sight
Oh, verai!
By the rivers of Babylon
Where he sat down
And there he wept
When he remembered Zion
Oh, the wicked carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
How can we sing King Alpha’s song
In a strange land?
'Cause the wicked carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
How can we sing King Alpha’s song
In a strange land?
