Take a ride back in history
Let's review the facts of eternity
To the children of Israel
And the burning sands and the desert heat
Bitter hearts in the wilderness
God saw that they would not confess
With a velvet touch and an iron hand
He dragged them to the promise land
And everything that can be will be
Everything that can be will be
Shaken, shaken, shaken, shaken
Shaken, shaken, shaken, shaken
Shaken, shaken, shaken, shaken
God is going to shake the whole thing down
Raise your hands children, lift them high
Let's join our hearts and walk in the light
There's a desert, there's a wilderness
Separating us from a better life
See, together we can walk through fire
We can face the flame, we can reach the higher
Ground that waits in the promise land
'Cause only faith and love will stand
And everything that can be will be
Everything that can be will be
Shaken, shaken, shaken, shaken
Some things last forever
Shaken, shaken, shaken, shaken
Some things fade away
Shaken, shaken, shaken, shaken
