Get Thee Behind Me Songtext
von Jason Charles Miller

While He was sailing down the river
To the sea of Galilee
I put Pharisees and Sadducees to work for me
While He was walking on the water
Near the shores of Magadan
I was hiding in the desert with a wicked plan
I go by many names
And I remember every face
Hang with me awhile
And you′ll learn disgrace

Making water into wine
Stones into bread
Remembering 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 wandering in the wilderness
Forty days and forty nights
Never what I said to 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

Making water into wine
Stones into bread
Remembering 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
No
Devil won't show what he don′t know

Well, they cast me down
To the underground
I'm gonna raise my throne
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
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
