Well, the Bible tells us about a man who

Around the city he built a wall,

declared that Babylon would never fall.

C
He had concubines and wives,
called his Babylon paradise.
Paradise on his throne,
he drank and ate,
G
C
but for Belshazzar it was getting late
He'd been weighed in the balance
and found wanting
His kingdom was divided,
C
He'd been weighed in the balance
and found wanting
G
His castles were built on the

sand
C
Well, the people feasted,
drank their wine,
praised the false gods of their time.
Holy things they scorned and mocked,
G
but suddenly all their mocking stopped.
C
For on the wall there appeared a hand,
nothing else, there was no man.
Below the hand began to write,
G
C
Belshazzar couldn't hide his fright
He'd been weighed in the balance
and found wanting

in the balance
and found wanting
G
His castles were built upon

Well, no one around
could understand
What was written by
the mystic hand
Belshazzar tried and he couldn't

A man who would give him

peace of mind
But Daniel, the prophet, the man of God
He saw the writing in
the wall in blood
Belshazzar asked him what he said
G

And Daniel turned to the wall in red
You've been weighed in the balance
and found wanting
Yes, your kingdom is divided
C
Yes, you've been weighed in the balance
and found wanting
G
C
G
C
Yes, castles are built upon the sand
