Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego!

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego!



Now there were three children from the land of
Isreal

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego!

Ah they took a little trip to the land of
Babylon

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego!

And ol’ Nebudchanezzer was the king of
Babylon

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego!

So they took a lot of gold, and made ‘em an
idol

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego!



And they told everybody “when you hear the
music of the clarinet,”

They told everybody “when you hear the music of
the flute,”

“Now listen, children, when you hear the music
of the horn,”

“Oh, you gotta bow down and worship the
idol!”

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego!



Ah, but the children of Israel would not bow
down!

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego!

“We aint’ going to bow to no golden
idol!”

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego!

No, you couldn’t fool the children with the
golden idol!

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego!



So the king cast the children in the fiery
furnace

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego!

He heaped on coal and red-hot brimstone you
couldn't but see

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego!

Even made it seven times hotter than it oughtta
be!

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego!

Now they burned up the soldiers that the king had
put there

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego!

Oh, Shadrack! Meshach, Abednego!



Um hmm, then the Good Lord called an angel,

Gave him a couple of wings.

He said “go down there through the middle of
the furnace

And began to coolin' the flames.”

And those children got so happy, 

they went struttin’ right through the fire.

And this lot got to talkin' bout the power of
gospel

Shadrack, Meshach, Abednego!



Oh, Shadrack! Meshach, Abednego!!!
