Get Thee Behind Me

While he was sailin' down the river to the Sea of Galilee

I'm prepared with seas in sight, it seems to work for me

While he was walkin' on my water near the shores of Magadan

I was hidin' in the desert with a wicked plan

I go by many names and I remember every face

Hang with me a while and you'll learn this grace

Makin' water into wine, stones into bread

Rememberin' what he said

Get thee behind me

Get thee behind me

Get thee behind me

'Cause the devil won't show

What he know you don't know

Yeah, he was wanderin' in the wilderness

Forty days and forty nights

Never would I say about him, I couldn't get right

Took him up the highest mountain

With a view of all the land

I thought just a glimpse of power

Would make him damned

Makin' water into wine, stones into bread

Rememberin' what he said

Get thee behind me

Get thee behind me

Get thee behind me

'Cause the devil won't show

What he know you don't know

Get thee behind me

Get thee behind me

Get thee behind me

'Cause the devil won't show

What he know you don't know

Lord

Devil won't show, we don't know

Roll the casket down

To the underground

I'm gonna raise my tone

You're gonna hear my sound

He said, "Get thee behind me

Get thee behind me

Get thee behind me

'Cause the devil won't show

What he know you don't know"

Get thee behind me

Get thee behind me

Get thee behind me

'Cause the devil won't show

What he know you don't know

Get thee behind me

(Oh, get behind me)

Oh, 'cause the devil won't show

(What he knows you don't know)

Oh (Get behind me)

Yeah, oh

(The devil won't show)

What he knows you don't know
