Oh, oh, oh
By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
And there we wept
When we remembered Zion
Psalm 137:1
For the wicked carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
How can we sing King Alpha song
In a strange land?
Psalm 137:3-4
By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
And there we wept
When we remembered Zion
For the wicked carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
How can we sing King Alpha song
In a strange land?
(..)
For the wicked carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
How can we sing King Alpha song
In a strange land?
By the rivers of Babylon
Where we sat down
And there we wept
When we remembered Zion
For the wicked carried us away in captivity
Required from us a song
How can we sing King Alpha song..
