Max Romeo - Chase The Devil


Song Lyrics

Biblical Reference

Lucifer* son of the morning, I'm gonna chase you out of
earth!
Isaiah 14:12 - How art thou fallen from heaven,
O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down
to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!
I'm gonna put on a iron shirt, and chase Satan out of
earth
I'm gonna put on a iron shirt, and chase the devil out of
earth
Job 18:18 - He shall be driven from light into darkness,
and chased out of the world.
Revelation 12:7-10 - And there was war in heaven:
Michael and his angels fought against the dragon;
and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not;
neither was their place found any more in heaven.
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent,
called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the
whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his
angels were cast out with him. And I heard a loud
voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation,
and strength
, and the kingdom of our God, andthe power
of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren
is cast down, which accused them before
our God day and night.
I'm gonna send him to outa space, to find another race
I'm gonna send him to outa space, to find another race

Satan is an evilous man,
But him can't chocks it on I-man
So when I check him my lassing hand
And if him slip, I gaan with him hand

I'm gonna put on a iron shirt, and chase Satan out of
earth
I'm gonna put on a iron shirt, and chase the devil out of
earth
I'm gonna send him to outa space, to find another race
I'm gonna send him to outa space, to find another race

Him haffi drop him fork and run
Him can't stand up to Jah Jah son
Him haffi lef' ya with him gun
Dig off with him bomb

I'm gonna put on a iron shirt, and chase Satan out of
earth
I'm gonna put on a iron shirt, and chase the devil out of
earth
I'm gonna send him to outa space, to find another race
I'm gonna send him to outa space, to find another race

Satan is a evilous man,
But him can't chocks it on I-man
So when I check him my lassing hand
And if him slip, I gaan with him hand

I'm gonna put on a iron shirt, and chase Satan out of
earth
I'm gonna put on a iron shirt, and chase the devil out of
earth
I'm gonna send him to outa space, to find another race
I'm gonna send him to outa space, to find another race

Move ya with your gun
Mi sey fe lef' ya with your bomb...
 



Note: The name 'Lucifer' (Latin: literally meaning 'light bearing') has not always been associated with the fallen angel, Satan. Originally, it was simply the Roman name of the planet
Venus, the 'morning star' that rose just before the sun. ... In Isaiah 14:12, we find the Hebrew phrase, "HeYLeL BeN-ShaCHaR", meaning 'bright son of the morning/dawn' (i.e. 'bright/glowing morning star'). In the Greek version of the Old Testament (the Septuagint), this was translated as 'Phosphorus' (the Greek name of the morning star), and thence translated 'Lucifer' in the Latin Vulgate bible. Isaiah chapter 14 probably condemns the arrogance of the kings of Babylon who considered themselves glorious as the morning star, yet fell to earth. However, due to a confusion of the passages Isaiah 14:12, Luke 10:18 and Revelation 12:7-10, the name 'Lucifer' became applied to the Devil.
