By the Babylonian Rivers
Hymnal: RitualSong #543 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Topics: Exile Lyrics: 1 By the Babylonian rivers
We sat down in grief and wept;
Hung our harps upon the willow,
Mourned for Zion when we slept.
2 There our captors in derision
Did require of us a song;
So we sat with staring vision,
And the days were hard and long.
3 How shall we sing the Lord's song
In a strange and bitter land;
Can our voices veil the sorrow?
Lord God, hold your holy band.
4 Let the Cross be benediction
For those bound in tyranny;
By the power of resurrection
Loose them from captivity. Scripture: Psalm 137 Languages: English Tune Title: KAS DZIEDAJA

Your harps, ye trembling saints
Author: Augustus M. Toplady Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #595 (1961) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Israel In Exile Lyrics: 1 Your harps, ye trembling saints,
Down from the willows take;
Loud to the praise of love divine
Bid ev'ry string awake.
2 Though in a foreign land,
We are not far from home;
And nearer to our house above
We ev'ry moment come.
3 His grace will to the end
Stronger and brighter shine;
Nor present things, nor things to come,
Shall quench the grace divine.
4 When we in darkness walk,
Nor feel the heav'nly flame,
Then is the time to trust our God,
And rest upon his Name.
5 Soon shall our doubts and fears
Subside at his control;
His loving-kindness shall break through
The midnight of the soul.
6 Blest is the man, O God,
That stays himself on thee:
Who wait for thy salvation, Lord,
Shall thy salvation see.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 57:1 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. ETHELWALD
Your harps, ye trembling saints
