Devastator Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hell, fear me
I am the one that will bring you down
And when you fall, feel me
You’ll see my face on the battleground
Hell, fear me
I am the one that will bring you down
And when you fall, feel me
You’ll see my face on the battleground

[Verse 1]
Let my name be feared at the gates of hell, as I exalt the Savior
The One that died to buy my victory, and gave me a new name
Let my name be feared at the gates of hell, as I exalt the Savior
In the name of the Holy One of God
I will cast you down at the foot of the cross He hung from
I will stand behind my Savior, as He burns your kingdom down
And I will see you on your knees before the King of Kings
You will lose your throne to the chosen ones

[Pre-Chorus]
The chosen ones will rise!

[Chorus]
Tear it to the ground
This is the army we’ve been waiting for
Tear it to the ground
We will storm the gates of hell and we will
Tear it to the ground
We stand behind the one that conquered death
Tear it to the ground
And we will stand when there is nothing left
[Post-Chorus]
Tear it to the ground
Tear it to the ground, eyuh!

[Verse 2]
Justice, Justice, Justice, God, bring justice
(Justice) We will come against the bondage of hell
(Justice) And we will take back what’s taken from us
(Justice) This is our right as heirs to dominion (God, bring justice)

[Outro]
This war will end
I am the one that will bring you down
And when you fall, feel me
You’ll see my face on the battleground
Hell, fear me
I am the one that will bring you down
And when you fall, feel me
You’ll see my face on the battleground

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
