Jerusalem Catch the Devil, Catch the Thief song lyrics

A thief broke into my house last night, yeah, he came when I was asleep,

He took my joy, took my smile, blew my light, took my boldness to keep,

An easy job for him; it didn't take long 'til my possessions were gone.

So catch the devil, catch the thief,

His place is under my feet,

Catch the devil, catch the thief,

Breaking his spell,

No devil in Hell will ever control me.

I was so mad when I saw what he'd done, I wanted to get revenge,

Next time he tries to get into my house I'm gonna kick him out,

For all the things he's been taking from me, it's gonna cost him a lot.

Catch the devil, catch the thief,

His place is under my feet,

Catch the devil, catch the thief,

Breaking his spell,

No devil in Hell will ever control me.

Some people say, "It's already too late; nothing can change this world,"

Speaking for darkness, making a big mistake, for the message they've never, ever, ever, ever heard.

Catch the devil, catch the thief,

His place is under my feet,

Catch the devil, catch the thief,

Breaking his spell,

No devil in Hell will ever control me.

Whoa,

Whoa.

You can also beat him and you surely will,

Strike first - it's your dominion,

He's just a problem when you don't know that Jesus is the champion he is,

So wherever you are, and wherever you go, go cast the devil out, out.

Catch the devil, catch the thief,

His place is under my feet,

Catch the devil, catch the thief,

The time is come when he's gonna run,

He will never control you or me,

Oh, no, no, no, no, yeah.
