Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When fear, like a viper, strikes
And worry starts to creep
I know that ain't my Father's voice
It could only be
That liar in my ear
Tryna make me believe
So I'm calling him out in the name of the Lord
Listen when I speak
[Chorus]
Devil, get behind me, run on home
Back to the grave where you belong
In case you forgot, let me tell you the truth
You're stuck under my blood-bought boots
Devil, get behind me, you got no hold
I've been changed by the Holy Ghost
Try all you want, but it ain't no use
You're stuck under my blood-bought boots
[Chorus]
Get behind me
Get behind me
Devil, get behind me
[Verse 2]
The same power that raised my Savior
Is the power that lives in me
So if you wanna pick a fight, you better think twice
'Cause He's got an angel army
[Chorus]
Devil, get behind me, run on home
Back to the grave where you belong
In case you forgot, let me tell you the truth
You're stuck under my blood-bought boots
Devil, get behind me, you got no hold
I've been changed by the Holy Ghost
Try all you want, but it ain't no use
You're stuck under my blood-bought boots
[Chorus]
Get behind me
Get behind me
Devil, get behind me
In the name of the Lord
In the name of the Lord
[Chorus]
Get behind me
In the name of the Lord
Get behind me
Oh, in the name of the Lord
Devil, get behind me
In the name of the Lord
In the name of the Lord
The name of the Lord, the name of the Lord
[Chorus]
Devil, get behind me
You'd better run on home
Run on home
Back to the grave where you belong
Back where you belong
Just in case you forgot the truth
You're stuck under my blood-bought boots
Devil, get behind me, you got no hold
I've been changed by the Holy Ghost
Try all you want, but it ain't no use
You're stuck under my blood-bought boots
[Chorus]
Get behind me
Oh, get behind me
Get behind me
Devil, get behind me
Devil, get behind me
Devil, get behind me
In the name of the Lord
[Outro]
Get behind me (Oh)
Get behind me
Devil, get behind me
