Lyrics
Babylon
Take me back to the Jordan River
Far from Babylon
Sit with me and reconsider
The coming of the dawn
Sunlight gleams on the water
Far from Babylon
Feel the touch of the father
Read the words of his psalms
Walk with me in the desert
Far from Babylon
Bend your back to the holy work
That started near Lebanon
Reach out for the holiness
Far from Babylon
Far from endless emptiness
And all those doing wrong
