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
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'
Ooh, 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
Til your heart has His desire
Shakin' the house, shakin'
Shakin' the house, shakin'
Shakin' the house, shakin'
Shakin' the house, shakin'
Whoa...
Shakin', shakin'
Shakin', shakin' the house
