The devil had a party
on crucifixion day
Said Jesus was the Son of God
And we put Him away
That very day on Calv'ry
would seal His final doom
Victorious over death and hell
Christ came forth from
the tomb
Wait a minute devil
Don't start your party yet
A temporary victory is
all that you can get
Don't celebrate our troubles
God's words already said
You will be bound
And Jesus crowned
Don't start your party yet
The church has fought
some battles
We've lost a round or two
Old satan was rejoicing
He thought that we
were through
God took us from the valley
Though battle scarred
and sore
Put us higher on the mountain
than we've ever been before
Wait a minute devil
Don't start your party yet
A temporary victory is
all that you can get
Don't celebrate our troubles
God's words already said
You will be bound
And Jesus crowned
Don't start your party yet
The deceiver has
deceived himself
Thinks he's gonna win
This fight between
wrong and right
But he's just wrong again
When he's cast out in darkness
We'll shout the victory
He tried to take me with him
But Jesus set me free
Wait a minute devil
Don't start your party yet
A temporary victory is
all that you can get
Don't celebrate our troubles
God's words already said
You will be bound
And Jesus crowned
Don't start your party yet
Wait a minute devil
Don't start your party yet
A temporary victory is
all that you can get
Don't celebrate our troubles
God's words already said
You will be bound
And Jesus crowned
Don't start your party yet
Wait a minute devil
Don't start your party yet
A temporary victory is
all that you can get
Don't celebrate our troubles
God's words already said
You will be bound
And Jesus crowned
Don't start your party yet
