[D][Bm][E][A][D]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[D]His
guests [A]stared in fear,
and they [D]said, Look King!
The guests said, Look [A]King!
[D]Oh, Look King!
Oh, look, [A]King!
[D]The king was drinking [F#]wine
from the holy vessel
[Bm]When[D] his n[G]ame was call[Abdim]ed[D]
And King [Bm]Belshazzar [E]saw his hand
[G]Rid[D] in[A]g on[D][G]
[D]Well, [A]oh Der[D]be couldn't ease,
and his [G]son, El [D]-Shaz,
Ruled the Babylonian Empire,
and they had [G]planned to reign [D]forever.
Their captive slaves
that re[F#dim]fused to [G]worship,
they [D]outlawed.
Their lives was made miserable,
and their [G]way was sure made [D]wrong.
But there was three Hebrew
boys among them,
[G]by this time
I believe every[D]body knows them.
[A]Shadrach, Me[D]shach,
[G]and[D] Abednego.
And the Babylonian [F#dim]out of the boys[D]
re[G]fused [Bm]to glori[G]fy.[D]
[G]The[D]y put him in a furnished field
with [G]a hot flaming [D]fire
[G]But[D] my God wal[A]ked in[D]
and took [G]the heat out of the [D]flame
The miracle that was performed
in Babylon that day
[G]Have not yet been [D]explained
But that [F#]was just before
Daniel [Bm]predicted
[D]Never could [G]ease a [Abdim]downfall
[D]And his son, [Bm]Belshazzar
[E]Sold his hand
[A]Light[D]ing up the wall
[G]By this tim[D]e they were frightened
Staring [A]at the wall saying [D]Look King
The guest said Look [A]King
[D]Oh, Look King
Oh, look, [A]King[Asus4]
[A]By [D]this time,
even [F#]Belshed was frightene[Bm]d
[D]And said [G]in a whispering
small [Abdim]voice
[D]Somebody [Bm]go get Daniel
And tell [E]him to read the handwrit[A]ing
Oh, [D]this [G]one
[D]Well, [A]the mes[D]senger brought Daniel
A prophet [G]tried and [D]true
The king said Daniel
will you read it and please
[G]Tell us what to do
[D]The old prophet walked in
[G]All robed [D]and white
And he began to interpret the message
[G]It shook up Babylon [D]that [G]night
[D]Daniel said Belshazzar,
Belshazzar
[G]Your kingdom is at [D]hand
Your wicked selfishness, Belshazzar
[G]My God will just no longer stand
[D]You've gone your way, Belshazzar
[G]And refused to right me wrong
[Bm]Now [D]my God's gonna
give another king
Asset [G]to this Babylonian throne
[D]The day hath arrived, Belshazzar
[G]An d in the next approach[D]ing hour,
God's going to take this
throne away from you
[G]an d rob you of all your power.
[Bm]I kn[D]ow you want to get right,
Belshazzar,
but [G]I'm sorry you waited too [D]late.
Cyrus and his army
[G]is just [D]outside your gate.
Daniel [F#]predicted [Bm]their
[D]shares [G]would downfall,
[Abdim]as he rea[D]d and[Bm]
interpreted the [E]hand.
[A]Writing on the [D]wall,
he [G]read the [Bm]hand.
[G]Writing on the [D]wall,
a prophecy must [G]be fulfilled,
the hand.
Ridin' on the [D]road
Can't you see [G]the hand
Ridin' on the [D]road
