Shadrach
by Three Bridges

Album: Twelve

Verse 1
Well there were three children in the land of Israel – Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
Took a little trip to the land of Babylon – Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
Nebachanezzar was the king of Babylon – Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
He took a lot of gold and he made him an idol – Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego

Chorus
And he told everybody when the you hear the music of the cornet – oh yeah
And he told everybody when the you hear the music of the flute – ooh, ooh
And he told everybody when the you hear the music of the horn
Great God, then you gotta bow down and worship the idol
Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego

Verse 2
But the children of Israel would not bow down – Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
Cause you couldn't fool them with a golden idol – Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
I said, you couldn't fool them with a golden idol – Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
So the king put the children in the fiery furnace, great God – Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
And he heaped on a coal of red-hot brimstone – Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
Made it seven times hotter, hotter than it oughta be, the good book says – Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
He had burned up the soldiers that the king had put there – Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
Oh Shadrach, Meshach, Abenego, Woah!

Verse 3
Then the Lord God sent them an angel
And He gave them a couple a wings
Well they came down through the middle of the furnace and began to cool the flames
Well the children they all got happy, they went strutting back through the fire
Just a walking and a talking about the power of the gospel
Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
Oh Shadrach, Meshach, Abenego, Woah!

Verse 4
And old Nebachadnezzar cried, "Heaven" – Great God
When he saw the power of the Lord
And they had a big time in the land of Babylon
Shadrach, Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego, WOAH!
