What is the song 4th man by Jonathan David Helser and Melissa Helser all about?

“4th Man” is a reference to the bible passage in Daniel 3. It tells the story of three Hebew men- Abednego, Shadrach, and Meshach.

The three refused to bow to the graven image of the Babylonian king, Nebuchadnezzar. This angered the king, who asked some soldiers to throw them into a fiery furnace. It was so hot that the flames of the fire killed the soldiers while nothing happened to the trio.

But Jesus sent his angel “The 4th Man,” to rescue them in the furnace. Nebuchadnezzar was dazed when he saw four men come out of the fire unharmed.

In the song, the artists charged people to have unshakable faith or hold on to their faith regardless of the terrible situation they may be facing. Because the powerful, faithful and loving God will never let his children down. He will always come through for them and save them from every difficult situation. He is above all situations.
