It was on that night that Belshazzar
the kingdomtrapped and slain
The emperor of Babylon
no longer shall remain
Let the men of law appearthe wisest of the nearth
And to explain the words of fear
whith riyal royal pure mirth
The king was in his temple
The subjects filled the hall
There in viewa thousand cups of gold
Jehovas vessles hold
In that hour a visiona vision of a hand
Struck by fearthe mighty one appeared
Kept court against the wall
The fingers of a man
A solitary hand
Engraved into the wall
The writing bold and tall
Young men gave a start
They couldn`t understand
The proficy was told
Twas on that night that Belshazzar
the kingdomtrapped and slain
The emperor of Babylon
no longer shall remain
Let the men of law appearthe wisest ot the nearth
And to explain the words of fear
to silence the nation
Silence the nation
