If there's someone out there and their heart filled with doubt
And they're standing in the shadow and the candles blows out
And the devil is there with you,he's got you in his hold
You think you're no match for him,but don't surrender your soul
When the devil wants to wrestle put Jesus in the ring
When you're down for the count just call out his name
If he's got you in his grip oh remember this one thing
When the devil wants to wrestle put Jesus in the ring
There I was all alone fearing for my life
There was darkness all around me on that lonely night
When the devil made a move he got a hold of me
Then I called out for help and the Lord set me free
When the devil wants to wrestle put Jesus in the ring
When you're down for the count just call out his name
If he's got you in his grip oh remember this one thing
When the devil wants to wrestle put Jesus in the ring
When the devil wants to wrestle put Jesus in the ring
When you're down for the count just call out his name
If he's got you in his grip oh remember this one thing
When the devil wants to wrestle put Jesus in the ring
When the devil wants to wrestle put Jesus in the ring
