Shakin’ the House Petra

There's a rumble in the distance
A trembling in the air
It's uncertain in direction
Does is 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 shaken 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 is stand on rock or sand?
When the smoke clears
Does it bring fears
When the 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
