There's a rumble in the distance   A trembling in the air   It's uncertain in direction   Does it come from here or there      It's approaching by the minute   Does it lead you to despair   Feel it shakin' your foundation   when you haven't got a prayer      Everything that can be shaken will be shakin' from within   Better have your house in order when the shakin' begins      Shakin' the house, shakin', shakin' the house, shakin'   Shakin' the house, shakin', shakin' the house, shakin'   Shakin', shakin' the house      You examine your foundation   Does it stand on rock or sand   When the smoke clears, does it bring fears   When houses fall or stand      In the fire of refining   With flames too high to douse   You remember someone saying   It's beginning in the house      Everything that can be shaken will be shakin' from within   Better have your house in order when the shakin' begins      Shakin' the house, shakin', shakin' the house, shakin'   Shakin' the house, shakin', shakin', shakin', shakin', shakin'      But don't fear when it comes near   And you see the raging fire   If you hold fast it will all pass   Till your heart has His desire      Shakin' the house, shakin', shakin' the house, shakin'   Shakin' the house, shakin', shakin' the house, shakin'   Shakin', shakin', shakin', shakin', shakin' the house
