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!

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!

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

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!
