I am praying the same prayer that Jeremiah prayed
I have the same lamentations of Jeremiah
Hear my prayer, oh Lord, hear my cry, avenge me speedily
I have the same lamentations of the prophet Jeremiah

Oh, lamentations of Jeremiah, the prophet of the Lord
Thou hast heard their reproach, oh Lord
And all their imaginations against me
The lips of those that rose up against me

And they devise against me all the day
Behold, their sitting down, and their rising up, I am their music
Render unto them a recompense, oh Lord, according to the work of their hands

Give them sorrow of heart, Thy curse unto them, persecute and destroy them in anger from under the heavens
For what their hands have done, put a veil over their hearts. May your curse be upon them, pursue them in anger from the heaven

I am praying the same prayer that Jeremiah prayed, I have the same lamentations of Jeremiah
Hear my prayer, oh Lord, hear my cry, avenge me speedily, I have the same lamentations of the prophet Jeremiah

Lamentations of Jeremiah, the prophet of the Lord, you Lord took up my case, you redeemed my life
Lord, you have seen the wrong done to me, uphold my cause
Lord, you have seen the depths of their vengeance, and all their plots against me
Lord, you have heard their insults, all their plots against me, while my enemies whisper and mutter against me all day long

Look at them sitting or standing, they mock me in their songs, pay them back what they deserve, oh Lord
For what their hands have done, put a veil over their hearts
May your curse be upon them, pursue them in anger from the heavens

I am praying the same prayer that Jeremiah prayed, I have the same lamentations of Jeremiah
Hear my prayer, oh Lord, hear my cry, avenge me speedily, I have the same lamentations of the prophet Jeremiah

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
The thing that had already been is that which shall be, and that which hath been done is that which shall be done
There's no new thing under the sun whereby it may be said, see this is new, it hath already been of old time, yeah

I am praying the same prayer that Jeremiah prayed, I have the same lamentations of Jeremiah
Hear my prayer, oh Lord, hear my cry, avenge me speedily, I have the same lamentations of the prophet Jeremiah
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
