Beat The Devil |
In the wilderness Jesus stayed |
Forty nights and forty days |
The devil came in all his sin |
Came to tempt even Him |
Said I hear tell you’re God’s Son |
But you get hungry like anyone |
So if you’re what they’ve all said |
Then turn these rocks Jesus to bread |
By the Word of God man was shown |
He can’t live by bread alone |
Jesus said it’s written down |
The devil lost the first round |
The devil took Him to the temple roof |
Said Son of God I want some proof |
If you’ve got Angels to see you through |
Then jump down Jesus I bet they’ll catch you |
Jesus said Scriptires record |
Thou shall not tempt the Lord |
Look it up it’s written down |
The devil lost the second round |
Up on this mountain far as you see |
All these things I’ll give to thee |
If you’ll fall down on your knees |
Jesus Christ and worship me |
It’s written down He said again |
Worship God and only Him |
The devil left and the Angels came |
He beat the devil at his own game |
He beat the devil at his own game |
