Oh, need to be prayed up, yeah, oh
The old devil is on a rampage (Oh)
Come to kill, steal and destroy
Oh, we need to be prayed up

You got to let him know you got authority
You got to name and claim the victory
Oh, we need to be prayed up

Oh, oh, oh, every weapon
Every weapon that's formed against me
Shall not work (Shall not work)
Will not work (Will not work)
Can not work (Can not work), oh, oh (Yeah)
The blood
I have the blood of Jesus (Oh, I have the blood) covered over me

[Post-Chorus: Karen Clark Sheard & J. Drew Sheard II]
I'm 'bout to make the devil mad now (Yeah)
Everybody just put yo' hands in the air like this
Now if you in yo' car or in yo' home
Or on yo' job or wherever you may be
You gotta serve a personal notice to the devil
And say this (Let me hear you, hey)

[Bridge: Karen Clark Sheard & J. Drew Sheard II]
I have the power over the enemy
I can command him to take his hands off of me
I am covered by the blood of Jesus to be set free (Hey, hey, hey, hey)
In the end we're gonna win 'cause he's got to flee, yeah
I have the power over the enemy (Yeah)
I can command him to take his hands off of me (Take your hands off me, hey)
I am covered by the blood of Jesus to be set free (Hey, oh)
