Lyrics
The Devil Wants War. . .
He's the devil in disguise, the father of lies.
He'll never set you free.
His arrows fly; he wants you to die.
He don't care about you or me.
I'm taking up the armor, brandishing my sword.
Only the truth will set you free.
The Devil wants war. The Devil wants war.
I'm a righteous man, and I'm taking a stand,
my shield surrounding me.
I'm a soldier of light, and I'm ready to fight
the principalities.
I'm tearing down the darkness, praying up a storm.
The lion walks among the lambs . . . the Devil wants war.
War, war, the Devil wants war.
The Devil wants war.
War, war, the Devil wants war.
Lord, I place my heart in your hands.
You're all I'm fighting for.
You're the way, the truth, and the life.
I want peace, and that's for sure.
