Shadrack (Single Version)

The story of Shadrack Meshach and Abednego

There was 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

He took a lot of gold and made an idol

Shadrack Meshach Abednego

Oh

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

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 'em with a golden idol

Shadrack Meshach Abednego

I said you couldn't fool 'em with a golden idol

Shadrack Meshach Abednego

Shadrack Meshach Abednego

So the king put the children in the fiery furnace

Shadrack Meshach Abednego

Heaped on coals and red hot brimstone

Shadrack Meshach Abednego

Eleven times hotter hotter than it oughtta 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

Talkin' to the children 'bout the power of the Gospel

Shadrack Meshach Abednego

Well they couldn't burn a hair on the head of

Shadrack Meshach Abednego

Laughin' and talkin' while the fire jumpin' round

Shadrack Meshach Abednego

Old Nebudchanezzer called hey there

When he saw the power of the Lord

And they had a regal time in the house of Babylon

Shadrack Meshach Abednego

Oh Abednego
