The Fourth Man The Statler Brothers
[Intro]
[A] [D] [G]
[Verse 1]
[G]Here [D7]is a story from the [G]Good Book we know
A [D7]story bout a miracle that [G]happened long ago
We [D7]hope that you'll take courage when [G]temptation you meet
There's [C]somebody [G]watching you who's [C]strong when you're [G]weak
[Cborus]
They wouldn't [D7]bend
They held onto the will of [G]God so we are told
They wouldn't [D7]bow
They would not bow their knees to the [G]idol made of gold
They wouldn't [D7]burn
They were protected by the [G]fourth man in the fire
They wouldn't [C]bend they wouldn't [D7]bow they wouldn't [G]burn
[Verse 2]
Now the prophet Daniel tells about
Three [C]men who walked with God
Shadrack [D7]Meshack and Abednego
Before the wicked [G]king they stood
[Verse 3]
And the King commanded them
Bound and thrown in the [C]fiery furnace that day
But the [D7]fire was so hot that the men were slain
That forced them on their [G]way
[Verse 4]
Now when the three were cast in
And the King rose up to [C]witness this awful fate
He [D7]began to tremble at what he saw
And in astonished tones he [G]spake
[Bridge]
Did we not cast three men bound [C]into the midst that fire
For lo I [D7]see four men unhurt unbound and walking down [G]there
There's Shadrack Meshack and Abednego in the [C]fiery coals they trod
And the [D7]form of the fourth man that I see is like the Son of [G]God
[Cborus]
They wouldn't [D7]bend
They held onto the will of [G]God so we are told
They wouldn't [D7]bow
They would not bow their knees to the [G]idol made of gold
They wouldn't [D7]burn
They were protected by the [G]fourth man in the fire
They wouldn't [C]bend they wouldn't [D7]bow they wouldn't [G]burn
[Cborus]
They wouldn't [D7]bend
They held onto the will of [G]God so we are told
They wouldn't [D7]bow
They would not bow their knees to the [G]idol made of gold
They wouldn't [D7]burn
They were protected by the [G]fourth man in the fire
They wouldn't [C]bend they wouldn't [D7]bow they wouldn't [G]burn
[Cborus]
They wouldn't [D7]bend
They held onto the will of [G]God so we are told
They wouldn't [D7]bow
They would not bow their knees to the [G]idol made of gold
They wouldn't [D7]burn
They were protected by the [G]fourth man in the fire
They wouldn't [C]bend they wouldn't [D7]bow they wouldn't [G]burn [B] [G]
