BEREFT BY THE WATERS OF BABYLON
Cantor Lois Kittner
Let the tears fall Find your wherewithal to meet this Godforsaken moment in time The river knows all the painful persecutions of the past The taunting cries The vicious lies Are somehow part of what makes our story evermore
Don’ t tell me I must sing Don’ t tell me not to cry I’ m still bereft by the waters of Babylon
