Get Behind Me


I am forgiven, I am set free
Satan, you're a liar. Get behind me
I am born again, I do believe
You won't trick me like you tricked Eve
God has shown me mercy, and given me grace
Get behind me Satan, turn away thy face
You are defeated by Jesus, now you hold a grudge
You send your earthly workers to be my judge
Criticize what I do, gossip about how I'm living
Mad because I don't take the advice they are giving
Get behind me Satan, you don't own my heart
I'm not called for your purpose, I've been set apart
I'm not perfect, I realize that much
But I kneeled at the alter and I felt His touch
I am a new creation, Gods work in progress
I have some bumps and some lumps but I'm not done yet
You tried to temp Jesus, took Him out to the edge
Bribed Him and tested Him to jump off the ledge
So I knew you would come, I was told you would
You appear as a friend but you're up to no good
You use disguises so I don't recognize you
Get behind me, I know what you're trying to do
Go your way, go and let me be
There is no way you're taken this joy from me
May Savoir has risen, He is alive and well
He reached down and pulled me from the depths of hell
And I will not be deceived by you anymore
I have something worth while to life for
~Jackie Moore~
