lyrics

The Devil , a Wounded Man, and Me

The devil took me by the hand
Say to this stone, become a loaf of bread
Take and eat it as your own
Then You shall be hungry no more

A wounded Man, He took my mouth
All I heard was the Word come out
He said , Man shall not
live by bread alone
And this child
Earth ain’t her home

The devil placed me high on a hill
Shared me glory of the kingdom’s near
He said , “all of this can be yours”
If you kneel and call me lord

The devil moved me to rugged cliff
He turned to me and said jump off it
Let’s see how fast the angels fly
Since you are God you will not die

A wounded Man, He took my mouth
All I heard was the Word come out
The Lord Your God
You shall not test
And he left Me in the wilderness
The devil left me in the wilderness
