sons of korah - psalm 137 (babylon) lyrics

Loading...

by the rivers, there we sat
in babylon we sat and we wept
and upon the willow trees
hung our hearts
when we remembered zion

by our captors we were told
sing a song, a song of zion
but babylon we will not sing
a song of the lord
for we remember zion

we remember zion
oh who-o-o-oooh

tell me how can we sing
a song of the lord
while we are in a foreign land
tell me how can we sing
a song of the lord
while we are in a foreign land

if i forget you oh, jerusalem
may my right hand lose its sk!ll
may my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth
if i do not remember you
(if you are not my highest joy)

remember lord what edom did
remember, oh lord
on the day, the day jerusalem fell
‘tear it down’, they cried, ‘tear it down’
‘tear it down to its foundation’

oh daughter of babylon
doomed to destruction
happy’s the one who will repay you
oh daughter of babylon
doomed to destruction
happy’s the one who will repay you
for all of the things you have done

blessed is he, blessed is he
who destroys your progeny
(by the rivers, there we wept
by the rivers, there we wept
by the rivers, there we wept
when we remember zion)
[…?]
(by the rivers, there we wept
by the rivers, there we wept
by the rivers, there we wept
when we remember zion)

by the rivers, there we wept
by the rivers, there we wept
by the rivers, there we sat and wept
