One night while I was sleepin' I felt a presence in my room,
I looked down at the foot of my bed, and there stood Mr. Gloom.
He tried to put His spell on me, but I heard Him start to weep,
When I spoke the name of Jesus and I went right back to sleep.
I ain't got time for you Devil, don't waste your time on me,
I ain't got time for you Devil, 'cause Jesus lives in me.
I ain't got time for you Devil, don't waste your time on me,
I ain't got time for you Devil, 'cause Jesus lives in me.
Now the devil's like a lion, he's roaming to and fro,
He's seeking whom he may devour, and tryin' to steal my soul.
But the lion of Judea's in me, and I've nothing now to fear,
Satan, you have lost control, so get on out of here.
I ain't got time for you Devil, don't waste your time on me,
I ain't got time for you Devil, 'cause Jesus lives in me.
I ain't got time for you Devil, don't waste your time on me,
I ain't got time for you Devil, 'cause Jesus lives in me.

God said the devil is a lair, and the truth he cannot tell,
So when he says he's got you, just send him back to hell.
Jesus whipped the devil, well He showed him who was boss,
Took the keys to death, hell, and the grave,
and said sleuth foot you've lost.
But, the devil's not to smart you know, showin' up at ever turn, But I just smile and go on by, seems the devil never learns.
I ain't got time for you Devil, don't waste your time on me,
I ain't got time for you Devil, 'cause Jesus lives in me.
I ain't got time for you Devil, don't waste your time on me,
I ain't got time for you Devil, 'cause Jesus lives in me.
