Rivers of Babylon

Dat is then and dis is now

Sing a song of praise and shout it out load

To reach zion yu have to be strong like a lion,

Unity and strength divided we fall

Stand up for your right & pure in your want

Keep it in your mind and lock it in your thoughts

CHORUS

By the river of babylon

Where we sat down

Yeah, where we wept when remembered zion

for the wicked carried us away captivity

Required from us a song

Now, how can we sing king alfa song in strange land

Sing it loud , sing a song of freedom

Sing along brothers , sing along sisters

Oh, let the words of our mouths

And the meditation of our hearts

Be acceptable in thy sight oh for I

For the wicked carried us away captivity

Required from us a song in a strange land

Ooh, Oh let the words,

Let the words of my mouth

Be acceptable in ty sight
