Where You Are

Talkin' Daniel in the den of the lions

Talkin' Jonah in the belly of a whale

Talkin' three Hebrew children

And they're standing in a furnace, fiery furnace

But the fire didn't burn them, and the lions didn't bite

And the Lord reached down and you can be sure that

Everything turned out right

Oh you'll meet the Lord in the furnace

A long time before you meet Him in the sky

And where you are ain't where you wish that you was

Well your life ain't easy and the road is rough

But where you are is where He promised to be

From the ends of the world to every point of need

Talkin' Daniel in the den of the lions

Talkin' Jonah in the belly of a whale

Talkin' three Hebrew children

And they're standing in a furnace, fiery furnace

But the fire didn't burn them, and the lions didn't bite

And the Lord reached down and you can be sure that

Everything turned out right

Oh you'll meet the Lord in the furnace

A long time before you meet Him in the sky

Meet Him in your time of trial

Meet Him in your hour of prayer

You can reach out and I'll bet

That you'll find that He's right there

Where you are, however grim it may seem

This is real life, baby

This ain't no Hollywood dream

And where you are no matter what you may face

You're gonna find out real soon what they mean when they say

Talkin' Daniel in the den of the lions

Talkin' Jonah in the belly of a whale

Talkin' three Hebrew children

And they're standing in a furnace, fiery furnace

But the fire didn't burn them, and the lions didn't bite

And the Lord reached down and you can be sure that

Everything turned out right

Oh you'll meet the Lord in the furnace

A long time before you meet Him in the sky

Meet Him in your time of trial

Meet Him in your hour of prayer

You can reach out and I'll bet

That you'll find that He's right there

But the fire won't burn you, and the lions won't bite

And the Lord will reach down and you can be sure that

Everything will turn out alright

Oh you'll meet the Lord in the furnace

A long time before you meet Him in the sky

Then you'll meet Him in the sky
