Psallos - the body of moses (9) Lyrics

One day, the devil came up and said
I heard that Moses is dead
I remember when he killed that man
Long ago in Egypt-land
There’s no honor for the burial of bloody hands
He said
Give me the body of Moses
Give me his flesh and bones
Give me the body of Moses
I have claimed him for my own
And that’s when, Michael came down and spoke
Oh devil, you talk of what you don’t know
I remember when you first rebelled
Long ago when the angels fell
There’s no honor and truth in the words of hell
He said
Give me the body of Moses
Give me his flesh and bones
Give me the body of Moses
God has claimed him for my own
And though Michael could have uttered a curse upon his head
Judging that devil to the level of a rebel where he made his bed
He said
Devil, the Lord rebuke you
Devil, your time will come
Devil, the Lord rebuke you
God will judge you when it’s done
And give me the body of Moses
Give me his flesh and bones
Give me the body of Moses
God has claimed him for his own

One day, the devil came up and said
I heard that Moses is dead
I remember when he killed that man
Long ago in Egypt-land
There’s no honor for the burial of bloody hands
He said
Give me the body of Moses
Give me his flesh and bones
Give me the body of Moses
I have claimed him for my own
And that’s when, Michael came down and spoke
Oh devil, you talk of what you don’t know
I remember when you first rebelled
Long ago when the angels fell
There’s no honor and truth in the words of hell
He said
Give me the body of Moses
Give me his flesh and bones
Give me the body of Moses
God has claimed him for my own
And though Michael could have uttered a curse upon his head
Judging that devil to the level of a rebel where he made his bed
He said
Devil, the Lord rebuke you
Devil, your time will come
Devil, the Lord rebuke you
God will judge you when it’s done
And give me the body of Moses
Give me his flesh and bones
Give me the body of Moses
God has claimed him for his own
