Daniel Saw The Stone - Phish

Oh Daniel saw the stone that was hewed out the mountain

Daniel saw the stone that came rolling through Babylon

Daniel saw the stone that was hewed out the mountain

Coming down to redeem a mighty world

(repeat above 4 lines)

Well, meet me, Jesus, meet me

Meet me in the middle of the air

'Cause now if these wings should fail me

Lord, I want to hitch on another pair

Oh Jesus was the stone that was hewed out the mountain

Jesus was the stone that came rolling through Babylon

Jesus was the stone that was hewed out the mountain

Coming down to redeem a mighty world

(repeat above 4 lines)

Oh, well the tree it was bending

Up in the heavenly land

Well, my God spoke unto the Holy Ghost

He said, «Come on and let’s make man»

I’m looking for the stone that was hewed out the mountain

I’m looking for the stone that came rolling through Babylon

I’m looking for the stone that was hewed out the mountain

Coming down to redeem a mighty world

(repeat above 4 lines)

Well, now, early in the morning the trumpet’s gonna sound

The dead and Christ is gonna rise

Well, if you ain’t got good religion

Lord, then hell you’ll open your eyes

I found that stone that was hewed out the mountain

I found the stone that came rolling through Babylon

I found the stone that was hewed out the mountain

Coming down to redeem a mighty world

(repeat above 4 lines)

The main difference between this version and Phish’s version is that Phish only

uses the first verse cited here («meet me, Jesus, meet me»).

The other verse

that Trey sings (the only other verse) is this:

Well, I saw a weary traveler

He was walking on down the road

Well, I saw him later that evening

He was walking on down that road

(followed by the «walk, walk, walk…» part)
