[00:00:03] Well the bible tells us about a man

[00:00:08] Who ruled babylon and all its land

[00:00:11] Around the city he that

[00:00:16] Well th bible tells us about a man

[00:00:21] Who ruled babylon and all its land

[00:00:25] Around the city he built a wall

[00:00:28] And declared that babylon

[00:00:30] Would never fall

[00:00:32] He had concubines and wives

[00:00:36] He called his babylon paradise

[00:00:39] On his throne he drank and ate

[00:00:43] But for belshazar it was getting late

[00:00:46] For he was weighed in the balance

[00:00:50] And found wanting

[00:00:54] His kingdom was divided couldn't stand

[00:01:01] He was weighed in the balance

[00:01:05] And found wanting

[00:01:09] His houses were built upon the sand

[00:01:16] Well the people feasted and drank their wine

[00:01:21] And praised the false gods of his time

[00:01:24] All holy things they scorned and mocked

[00:01:28] But suddenly all their mocking stopped

[00:01:32] For on the wall there appeared a hand

[00:01:35] Nothing else there was no man

[00:01:39] In blood the hand began to write

[00:01:43] And Belshazar couldn't hide his fright

[00:01:48] For he was weighed in the balance

[00:01:50] And found wanting

[00:01:54] His kingdom was divided couldn't stand

[00:02:01] He was weighed in the balance

[00:02:05] And found wanting

[00:02:09] His houses were built upon the sand

[00:02:16] Well no one around could understand

[00:02:20] What was written by the mystic hand

[00:02:24] Belshazar tried but couldn't find

[00:02:28] A man who could give him peace of mind

[00:02:31] But daniel the prophet a man of God

[00:02:35] He saw the writing on the wall in blood

[00:02:39] Belshazar asked him what it said

[00:02:42] And daniel turned to the wall and read

[00:02:47] My friend you're weighed in the balance

[00:02:50] And found wanting

[00:02:53] Your kingdom is divided it can't stand

[00:03:00] You're weighed in the balance and found wanting

[00:03:08] Your houses are built upon the sand
