The Lions Den |
| Once upon a time in churches of old |
| The velcro age had yet to unfold |
| Flannel was king and Sunday School knew |
| How to make those Bible heroes stick like glue |
| How to make 'em stick with you |
| Flannelgraph lions, mounted and mean |
| The prophet Daniel in between |
| Head toward heaven, sturdy and true |
| A man of God who did not fear the gods of men |
| He didn’t fear the lions' den |
| Every age at every stage |
| Lions rage |
| Pray, stand your ground |
| They’ll lie down |
| Dumb struck, I was shaken and stirred |
| He wouldn’t kowtow, he kept God’s word |
| Teacher said, «Son, this could be you |
| If you put your trust in God and not the praise of men |
| You won’t fear the lions' den» |
| And if we play by lions' rules |
| We start lionizing fools |
| God wrote the book, he’ll fortify |
| And like the eagles we will fly |
| We’re gonna fly |
| Late one night in a fever dream |
| The prophet Daniel came to me |
| «Sir,"I said, «I've lost my nerve |
| I lip serve God and put my faith in Godless men |
| I fear the lions' den» |
| Then he said, «Who says I’m not a feline-phobe? |
| Who says I wasn’t ready to wet my robe? |
| Faith is tough, boy, but God gives grace |
| So take deep breath, head up, set your face like flint |
| And stop being a wimp» |
