Analysis of THE SPIRIT STRIKES AGAIN
Barry Green Jr 1973 (Florida)
THe SPIRIT STRIKES AGAIN!
Your Poetic Messenger is at it again
Winning before I even begin
And like last time, it's past time
For me to spit a rhyme
So listen to the words from my mouth
Devil, you're headed South
To a place that's eternally warm
Chased there by a Sprit-filled swarm
IN JESUS' NAME, we throw you down
Dance as you are finally bound
Devil get your stinkin' hands off me!
I'm a Child of the King, eternally free!
You come to lie,cheat, and kill
But this is a soul you'll never steal
'Cause I'm a soldier in the army of the Lord
He's given me double edged Sword
And I slice and dice
Never thinking twice
Secure in Christ
You can't entice
He paid the Price
I'm through playing nice!
I'm sick and tired of this dummy's game
I have ALL authority in Jesus' name
IN JESUS'NAME, sickness be bound!
IN JESUS' NAME, I win this round!
IN JESUS' NAME I put you under my feet
Drag you to the Judge's Seat
There's no mention of your survival
Anywhere in the Holy Bible
Saints of God, give an Hallelujah shout
If ya'll know what I'm talking about!
"Hallelujah" all His people say
The Victory is ours today
And devil, there's nothing you can do
IN JESUS' NAME, I take authority over you
You made a Hell of a mistake
So stop hissing you tiny little snake
The battle is over and done
Look at the devil, trying to run
The battle was over before it began
'Cause the Holy Spirit struck again!
Amen
