DEEP BLUE SEA (trapped between the devil)

The children of Israel were running for dear life
The deep sea just before them and the devil in the back
Without the help of God, things could go so wrong
They could see off in the distance, evil coming strong
Pharaoh and his army was coming to take their life
They were trapped between the devil and the deep blue sea
Yes, the devil and the deep blue sea

My life was all involved with the world around me
Having fun and working hard, being all that I could be
Fighting against the devil each and every night
Trying hard and seeking to do what is right
I could not get it together because I was trying all alone
It never got any better until Jesus came along
I was trapped between the devil and the deep blue sea
Yes, the devil and the deep blue sea

I could see off in the distance, the devil was coming strong
Many times he tricked me off the pathway I did roam
I let the evil one confuse me with my back against the wall
Without Jesus there beside me, I was sure I'd take a fall
My life was so much better since Jesus came along
And I do not need to worry, in Jesus just be strong
He makes me strong, He makes me strong

With my back toward the water, ain't no place left to run
I cried to the Spirit, the Father and the Son
And the waves rolled back, with a wall of sin on each side
The pathway was easy with Jesus on my side, on my side, on my side

Jesus walked on water, and suddenly came to me
What is there to worry about, I have nothing left to fear
With one hand on the Bible, the Holy Spirit in my heart
Jesus said proclaim it, and the devil has to part
I'm not trapped any longer between the devil and the deep blue sea

With my back toward the water, ain't no place left to run
I cried out to the Spirit, the Father and the Son
And the waves rolled back, with a wall of sin on each side
The pathway was easy with Jesus on my side, on my side
I'm not trapped between the devil any longer and the deep blue sea

I'm not trapped, I'm not trapped, I'm not trapped
