So catchy you almost miss the abject misery that the song is all about. Absolutely essential!

So true music godly thing beiow Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary PSALM 137 Ps 137:1-9. This Psalm records the mourning of the captive Israelites, and a prayer and prediction respecting the destruction of their enemies. 1. rivers of Babylon-the name of the city used for the whole country. remembered Zion-or, Jerusalem, as in Ps 132:13. Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary 137:1-4 Their enemies had carried the Jews captive from their own land. To complete their woes, they insulted over them; they required of them mirth and a song. This was very barbarous; also profane, for no songs would serve but the songs of Zion. Scoffers are not to be compiled with. They do not say, How shall we sing, when we are so much in sorrow? but, It is the Lord's song, therefore we dare not sing it among idolaters.
