[Verse 1]
Daniel's with lions tonight in a cave
I can see their red pale eyes testin’ his faith
Oh, and I can see Daniel waitin' to die
God, it looks like Daniel
Won't be around in my life

[Verse 2]
They say it’s a pity though I can't intervene
Daniel, just was the best slave who ever served this king
Oh, and, even so, I can't change the law
Lord, I'll miss Daniel
Oh, I'll miss him so much

[Chorus 1]
Oh, oh, oh -- Daniel, my governor
You are bolder than me
Do you still feel so brave?
Are you more than a meal?
You're wise and kind
But you face roarin' lions
Daniel, will they starve?
Will your faith save your life?

[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus 2]
Oh, oh, oh -- Daniel, my governor
You are bolder than me
Will you still be the same
When tomorrow is here?
Will I start cryin'
Will you see mornin' light?
Daniel, it's so hard
I'm afraid that you'll die

[Verse 3]
Daniel's with lions tonight in a cave
I can see an Israelite's just what they crave
Oh, and, I can see Daniel prayin' for life
God, if You like Daniel
Just stay around him tonight

[Outro]
Oh, God, if You like Daniel
Just keep him out of those lions
