Here is a story
From the good book we know
A story 'bout a miracle 
That happened long ago

We hope that you'll take courage
When temptation you meet
There's somebody watching you
Who's strong when you're weak

They wouldn't bend
They held on to the will of God so we are told
They wouldn't bow
They would not bow their knee to the idol made of gold
They wouldn't burn
They were protected by the fourth man in the fire
They wouldn't bend  
They wouldn't bow, they wouldn't burn

Now the prophet Danial tells about
Three men who walked with God
Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego
Before the wicked king they stood

And the king demanded them
Bound and thrown
In the firey furnace that day
But the fire was so hot 
That the men were slain 
Who forced them on their way

Now when the few were thrown in 
And the king rose up
To witness this awful fate
He began to tremble at what he saw
And in astonished tones he spake

Did we not cast three men bound
Into the midst of that fire
Well though I see four men unhurt
Unbound and walking down there

There's Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego
An' the fiery coals they trod
And the form of the fourth man
That I see is like the Son of God

They wouldn't bend
They held on to the will of God so we are told
They wouldn't bow
They would not bow their knee to the idol made of gold
They wouldn't burn
They were protected by the fourth man in the fire
They wouldn't bend 
They wouldn't bow, they wouldn't burn 

They wouldn't bend
They held on to the will of God so we are told
They wouldn't bow
They would not bow their knee to the idol made of gold
They wouldn't burn
They were protected by the fourth man in the fire
They wouldn't bend
They wouldn't bow, they wouldn't burn 

They wouldn't bend
They held on to the will of God so we are told
They wouldn't bow
They would not bow their knee to the idol made of gold
They wouldn't burn
They were protected by the fourth man in the fire
They wouldn't bend
They wouldn't bow, they wouldn't burn
