Fourth Man

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 knees to  Idols 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 Daniel tells about Three  men who walked with God Shadrach Meshach and Abednego Before the wicked king they  stood And the king commanded them bound and thrown Into the  fiery furnace that day But the  fire was so hot that the men were slain That forced them on their  way. 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 knees to  Idols 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 when the three were cast in and the king rose up To witness this awful fate He began to tremble at what he saw In astonished tones he spake Did we not cast three men bound Into the midst of the fire Well Lo I see four men unhurt Unbound and walkin' down there; There's Shadrach Meshach and Abednego And the fiery coals they trod But 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 knees to  Idols 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 knees to  Idols 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.
