Cut the devil down, Lord, cut the devil down,
|
|
Drive him out of town, Lord, cut the devil down.
|
|
The devil hates Your blood, Lord, You know He hates Your blood,
|
|
So drown him in a flood, Lord, the devil hates Your blood.
|
|
|
Well, I thought that he'd be bound to leave
|
|
Without our praise and love,
|
|
But I know that he can't stand against me
|
|
When I'm seeking the power from above, Lord
|
|
|
Cut the devil down, Lord, cut the devil down,
|
|
Swing Your sword around, Lord, and cut the devil down.
|
|
The devil knows who's boss, he surely knows who's boss,
|
|
Cuz You beat him at the cross, Lord, the devil knows who's boss.
|
|
|
Well, the saints are crying to You Lord,
|
|
And they just can't be denied,
|
|
Cuz their clothes are washed in righteousness,
|
|
And their sins are all crucified.
|
|
|
Cut the devil down, Lord, shut the devil down,
|
|
Throw Your weight around, Lord, and cut the devil down.
|
|
The liar's got to leave, Lord, the liar's got to leave,
|
|
Because he saw You bleed, Lord, the liar's got to leave.
|
|
|
Well, my soul is crying to You, Lord,
|
|
And Your peace is all I need,
|
|
And I must repent before Your throne,
|
|
So I'm here on my knees, and I plead,
|
|
Oh cut the devil down, Lord, cut the devil down,
|
|
Blind him with Your crown, Lord, yeah, cut the devil down.
