Burn Us Up!!

OK OK, I am sorry, Shawn Mcdonald is who I am listeningto right now, so it has been on my heart.

Here is a song I really like. By a group of guys called Shane and Shane. They are extremely awesome!!!

The song is about Hananiah (Shadrach), Mishael (Meshach), and Azariah (Abednego). King Nebuchadnezzar creats an idol and comands everyone to worship it. Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego don't. The king goes into a rage and tells them to bow, they don't. They know that worshiping a flas idol is wrong and that they are not to do it. They have faith that god will take care of them. They tell the king, throw us in the fire, we know God will deliver us, but even if he doesn't , it is ok, throw us in. it is that amazing faith that moves me. Knowing that they are going to die, but do it anyways.

The king does throw them in , and in the end, they are unharmed. WOW.

Burn Us Up by Shane and Shane

There were three
Before the king
There were three who wouldn’t bow to him
For when you heard
The music play
And you were standing you would burn.
They looked at him and said…

Burn us up! Burn us up! Burn us up!
Oh king won’t you burn us in the furnace of
Your desire
We give up! We give up! We give up!
Oh king won’t you burn us in the furnace of
Your desire!
Won’t you throw us in the fire!

The king enraged
At what they said
Sent the three away to find their death
The palace stopped in unbelief
When the guilty raised their hands to sing
They looked at him and said…

You are able to deliver from the fire of affliction
It’s the declaration of my Lord
You’re not an image of gold
You’re the God of old
You have made us
Come and save us
We are Yours
But even if You don’t, we will burn!
