(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.(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.
