Matt Maher The Rivers of Babylon song lyrics

By the rivers of Babylon

I sat and wept as I remembered Zion

And all the things that ruled my heart

Said sing a song for us now

But how could I sing for anyone but You?

By the rivers of the street

I could almost feel the spirit groan in me

I was deaf, dumb and blind

Choking on the dreams of human kind

But how could I dream of anything butYyou?

So for glory's sake, do not forget me

I still believe, in the midst of my frailty

For glory's sake, do not forget me

I still believe and I'm dying to my, dying to my humanity

By the rivers of the world

We all got drunk on ourselves

In the morning, the Son will rise

And despite all our sin save our lives

How could You die for anyone but You?

So for glory's sake, do not forget me

I still believe, in the midst of my frailty

For glory's sake, do not forget me

I still believe and I'm dying to my, dying to my humanity

By the rivers of Babylon, by the rivers of Babylon

By the rivers of Babylon, by the rivers of Babylon
