georgia costolo - psalm 137 lyrics

[verse 1: georgia costolo]
by the rivers of babylon we sat and wept
as we remembered zion
there on the poplars, we hung our harps
for our captors sought to torment us

[refrain]
shouting, “sing, sing, sing for us” (sing, sing, sing)
shouting, “sing, sing, sing for us” (sing, sing, sing)

[verse 2: georgia costolo]
how can we sing the songs of the lord
for you who are out to destroy?
jerusalem is ruined and it’s our own fault
but it was our highest joy

[refrain]
they’re shouting, “sing, sing, sing for us” (sing, sing, sing)
shouting, “sing, sing, sing for us” (sing, sing, sing)
we’re crying, “when will god deliver us?” (sing, sing, sing)
when will you deliver us? (sing, sing, sing)

[chorus: georgia costolo]
they say
“tear it down, break every wall
crush every home, break еvery stone
not evеn the rocks will cry
out for god”
the edomites ruined our homes
but not even god protected us
’cause we were a wretched child
oh, we see him no more
[verse 3: georgia costolo]
and daughter of babylon, doomed to destroy
daughter of babylon, doomed to destroy
happy is he who repays you
for what have you done but taken our children
and eaten a glutton’s fine banquet?

[chorus: georgia costolo]
“tear it down, break every wall
crush every home, break every stone
not even the rocks will cry
out for god”
the edomites ruined our homes
but not even god protected us
’cause we were a wretched child
oh, we see him no more

[bridge: kenneth townsell]
yeah, uh
i been depressed, i been a mess, i’m in my flesh
i have regrets, i don’t feel blessed because i’m stressed
i know you perfect, but i don’t see you perfectly working
i’m hurting, my burdens make me feel like life has no purpose
i feel deserted, i’m angry so it’s hard to worship
you tell me to trust in you because the scars are worth it
i’m steady searching, what i need feel like it don’t exist
you tell me all i need is you, i repent
father, forgive me, i’m weary
please renew my strength
you have a perfect plan for me
to the cross you went
died for my sin, my fear and shame
i know you reign
i can’t complain
it’s my fault, confess my blame
can you accept me though i’m broken and scared?
i feel far away from you, but there is hope from afar
i call on you
lord, i give my all to you
i fell so many times, lord, now i fall for you
[refrain: georgia costolo]
i’m shouting, “sing, sing, sing to god”
shouting, “sing, sing, sing to god”
he is emmanuel, the living hope
the great i am, the one true lord
we’re shouting, “sing, sing, sing to god”
we’re shouting, “sing, sing, sing to god”
he is the faithful one we know for sure
shouting, “sing, sing, sing to god”

[chorus: georgia costolo]
tear it down, break every pole
crush every idol, hope for our souls
the great iconoclast, he’s still living with us
tear it down, break every pole
crush every idol, hope for our souls
the great iconoclast, he’s still living with us
tear it down, break every pole
crush every idol, hope for our souls
the great iconoclast, he’s still living with us
