The Decree

In Babylon, the king chose faithful men
Experienced for the top positions
Trustworthy for any occasion
And there was Daniel, a man of faith with unwavering belief
In his work, the king saw results
And wanted to promote him even more

And there a group arose
Seeking accusation against Daniel
Who was always a faithful man
Obedient to the laws of men and God
But to please the king, all together to the palace
Went to bring a decree for the king to sanction
And have something to accuse Daniel of

And the presidents and governors said
Oh King Darius, live forever!
We all agree that the king should establish a decree
That whoever petitions any God
Or man other than you, oh king
Shall be cast into the den of lions
And the king signed the decree
According to the laws of the Medes and Persians
Which cannot be revoked

But there was a secret, Daniel prayed three times a day
In his house, he knelt down
With the windows open towards Jerusalem
Even knowing the situation, he continued to pray on his knees
And the envious ones celebrated
Now we have something to accuse Daniel of

He prays to his God, he bows before Him
He talks to his God, he worships his God
He does not cease to pray, what confidence he has
Who can deliver him? And they brought Daniel to the king
Who was thrown into the den of lions, to devour
God sent an angel and closed the lions' mouths
Daniel was acquitted, the decree revoked
The king was amazed: Daniel, faithful servant!
From now on, all of Babylon
Only worships your God

It's no use creating a decree to accuse the believer
The believer does not yield, he will not be intimidated
The more the struggles, the more the believer will pray
Trusting that God extends His mighty hand
And who can stop it if it is God's decision
And I'll tell you, it's better not to try
Because he prays to his God, he bows before Him
He talks to his God, he worships his God
He does not cease to pray and his God is faithful
It's God on earth, it's God in heaven, and acting, who will stop Him
