Shadrack

The story of Shadrack, Meshach and Abednego

There were three children from the land of Israel

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego

They took a little trip to the land of Babylon

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego

Nebudchanezzer was the King of Babylon

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego

They took a lot of gold and made an idol

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego

And he told everybody

‽When you hear the music of the trombone”

And he told everybody

‽When you hear the music of the clarinet”

And he told everybody

‽When you hear the music of the horn

Oh, you must fall down and worship the idol”

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego

But the children of Israel would not bow down

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego

‽Couldn't fool me with no golden idol”

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego

‽I said, you couldn't fool me with your golden idol”

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego

Oh, Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego

So the king put the children in a fiery furnace

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego

Heaped on coals and red-hot brimstone

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego

Eleven times hotter, hotter than it ought to be

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego

Burned up the soldiers that the king had put there

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego

But the Lord sent an Angel with the snow white wings

Down in the middle of the furnace

And talking to the children 'bout the power of Gospel

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego

Well, they couldn't find a hair on the head

Of Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego

Laughing and talking about the fire jumping around

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego

Oh, Nebudchanezzer [Incomprehensible]

When he saw the power of the Lord

And [Incomprehensible] in the house of Babylon

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego, Abednego
