-deux ex mechina-
who will bow down
to the god that we made
an image as gold
[but not really gold,
as we quit that before]
towering too high
will it be found in the morning
facedown on the floor
laid down and broken
with head and hands at the door
unable to save
so who won't bow down
to the god that we made
the hour grows near
and the flames reach new heights
should we find ourselves
in the midst of the flames
we will walk in the fire
and praise God
and bless the Lord
whose name is worthy
to be praised and glorified
for evermore
for You, God are righteous in all things
true in all works
right in all ways
and all Your judgments are truth
[dan3v28+ apocryphitic kjv]
(3:28) In all the things that thou hast brought upon
us, and upon the holy city of our fathers, even
Jerusalem, thou hast executed true judgment: for
according to truth and judgment didst thou bring all
these things upon us because of our sins.
(3:29) For we have sinned and committed iniquity,
departing from thee.
(3:30) In all things have we trespassed, and not
obeyed thy commandments, nor kept them, neither done
as thou hast commanded us, that it might go well with
us.
(3:31) Wherefore all that thou hast brought upon us,
and every thing that thou hast done to us, thou hast
done in true judgment.
(3:32) And thou didst deliver us into the hands of
lawless enemies, most hateful forsakers of God, and
to an unjust king, and the most wicked in all the
world.
(3:33) And now we cannot open our mouths, we are
become a shame and reproach to thy servants; and to
them that worship thee.
(3:34) Yet deliver us not up wholly, for thy name's
sake, neither disannul thou thy covenant:
(3:35) And cause not thy mercy to depart from us, for
thy beloved Abraham's sake, for thy servant Issac's
sake, and for thy holy Israel's sake;
(3:36) To whom thou hast spoken and promised, that
thou wouldest multiply their seed as the stars of
heaven, and as the sand that lieth upon the seashore.
(3:37) For we, O Lord, are become less than any
nation, and be kept under this day in all the world
because of our sins.
(3:38) Neither is there at this time prince, or
prophet, or leader, or burnt offering, or sacrifice,
or oblation, or incense, or place to sacrifice before
thee, and to find mercy.
(3:39) Nevertheless in a contrite heart and an humble
spirit let us be accepted.
(3:40) Like as in the burnt offerings of rams and
bullocks, and like as in ten thousands of fat lambs:
so let our sacrifice be in thy sight this day, and
grant that we may wholly go after thee: for they
shall not be confounded that put their trust in thee.
(3:41) And now we follow thee with all our heart, we
fear thee, and seek thy face.
(3:42) Put us not to shame: but deal with us after
thy lovingkindness, and according to the multitude of
thy mercies.
(3:43) Deliver us also according to thy marvellous
works, and give glory to thy name, O Lord: and let
all them that do thy servants hurt be ashamed;
(3:44) And let them be confounded in all their power
and might, and let their strength be broken;
(3:45) And let them know that thou art God, the only
God, and glorious over the whole world.
(3:46) And the king's servants, that put them in,
ceased not to make the oven hot with rosin, pitch,
tow, and small wood;
(3:47) So that the flame streamed forth above the
furnace forty and nine cubits.
(3:48) And it passed through, and burned those
Chaldeans it found about the furnace.
(3:49) But the angel of the Lord came down into the
oven together with Azarias and his fellows, and smote
the flame of the fire out of the oven;
(3:50) And made the midst of the furnace as it had
been a moist whistling wind, so that the fire touched
them not at all, neither hurt nor troubled them.
(3:51) Then the three, as out of one mouth, praised,
glorified, and blessed, God in the furnace, saying,
(3:52) Blessed art thou, O Lord God of our fathers:
and to be praised and exalted above all for ever.
(3:53) And blessed is thy glorious and holy name: and
to be praised and exalted above all for ever.
(3:54) Blessed art thou in the temple of thine holy
glory: and to be praised and glorified above all for
ever.
(3:55) Blessed art thou that beholdest the depths,
and sittest upon the cherubims: and to be praised and
exalted above all for ever.

kingdom: and to be praised and glorified above all
for ever.

of the fire hath he delivered us.

gracious: for his mercy endureth for ever.
(3:91) O all ye that worship the Lord, bless the God
of gods, praise him, and give him thanks: for his
mercy endureth for ever.
Dan 3:24 Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonied,
and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his
counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the
midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the
king, True, O king.
Dan 3:25 He answered and said, Lo, I see four men
loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they
have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the
Son of God.
