Oh, so far away and long ago
Reflected in the fire's glow
Lay all the splendors of a night in Babylon
Strange sights and sounds come from everywhere
Exotic music fills the air
Excitement and danger are the fare in Babylon
There, shining in the starlight
Towering high above those gathered there
Glittering golden in the firelight
God of Babylon, the king declares
And as the music crescendos
Everyone falls down to their knees and bows
But not the three Hebrew children
Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego
Back in the royal court of Babylon
the king demands a reason why
they were defying the laws of Babylon
Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego
they said they only worship One
The God of our father's so long ago
By king's command they are thrown into the fire
And yet the flames, they withstand
The king amazed, calls them from the flaming pyre
And soon before him they stand
They were protected by God's mighty hand
