Disaster was all a round Job when he laid upon his bed

With failing health his so-called friends Laid blame upon his head

But a fourth man that they did not know And surely didn't understand

Extinguished fires of accusation And reach down to lend a hand

I think we all could use a fourth man when the blazes are raging higher

The fourth man knows how to see you through the raging trials of fire

If all hell comes against you, my friend, just pray and stand

When you're all by yourself, there's nobody else You can trust the fourth man

They were thrown into a furnace that was heated seven times more

To find whose god they really served is what this trial was for

But a fourth man that they did not know and surely didn't understand

Preserved them from the heat that day and loosed them from their bands

You see we all could use a fourth man when the blazes are raging higher

The fourth man knows how to see you through the raging trials of fire

If all hell comes against you, my friend, just pray and stand

If you're all by yourself, there's nobody else you can trust the fourth man

If you're all by yourself, there's nobody else you can trust the fourth man
