Stryper - The Devil Doesn't Live Here Lyrics






I'll take the endless trials
Under the eagle eyes
But that won't make me second guess
What I believe or even why

You've spent a lifetime
Hiding from the final law
But when you bow before The King
You'll have to answer for it all

Are you ready?

The Devil doesn't live here
Only, Jesus
Sold out with no fear
Only to Jesus

You take the bet with
Every odd against my soul
But I'm a wrecking ball
And nothing's gonna stop me, you should know

Maybe it bothers you
That I'm up for the task
What will you do or say
When you have to remove the ugly mask

Will you be ready?

The Devil doesn't live here
Only, Jesus
Sold out with no fear
Only to Jesus

The Devil doesn't live here
Only, Jesus
Sold out with no fear
Only to Jesus

The Devil
Only
Sold out (Sold out to Jesus)
Only (Jesus)

Sold out to Jesus

    is their a reason why you linked this White Lion Pride cd song in this comment section, do you think part of it sounds like this song from stryper, the beginning of the white lion song doesnt sound like this one, white lion opened for stryper around 1988.

  6. a.... ....

    Awesome awesome song. Only thing i would have done different is have that guitar before the main stanzas be in both speakers and the the other guitars come in the same way, Other than that great song.

  7. J.... A....

    Love the thrash in this track Stryper dudes!!! Oh and every time I think I know what Robert is capable of with his drumming abilities, he has to go blow away everything he's done before and come back (yet again) and prove to the world that his talent NEVER stops growing. Robert is truly an amazing musician!

  8. h.... b....

    Robert Sweet is my favorite drummer next to Buddy Rich. STRYPER IS ALWAYS GREAT AND STELLAR IN CONCERT. STRYPER SHOULD BE IN THE ROCK N ROLL HALL OF FAME!!!!!! JESUS CHRIST ROCKS!!! LOVE THE SONGS OWN UP AND THE devil DOESNT LIVE HERE; Should be the first two songs on the album in my opinion. LIKE AEROSMITH, STRYPER ALBUMS ALWAYS SUFFICE.

  9. S.... H....

    Sin lugar a dudas, para mí la mejor canción del disco. Valió la pena escucharlo hasta el final... Me gustó el disco, pero me encantó este tema lml.

  10. B.... B....

    Kicking major Ass and taking names for GOD --- these can really play ------- an early tune that also just smokes is, "The Way"

  11. S.... 0....

    Awesome!!

  12. J.... ....

    Mediocore album, but this song fucking kicks ass!

  13. B.... B....

    I'm afraid to critic but the ending reminded me of a donald duck dokken voice. hate to say it cause Michael's voice is one of my favorites . Just reach out. I'll reach out, you reach out, today. that is your cue.

  14. B.... B....

    Nice push, the grit and drive...true, the devil is in the wrong place here! Thank you guys.

  15. G.... C....

    Blows away Megadeth,and I love megadeth!

  16. F.... T....

    What happened. . .You have lost that STRYPER Sound. . .I know you are doing a Message for GOD but just as the song by Petra says *"You got to Dance With The One Who Brung Ya, You Got To Dance With The One Who Got You There, You Got To Dance With The One Who Brung Ya, Don't Change Hats You Know It's the One You Wear"*

  17. G.... P....

    Awesome band with an even greater message.

  18. D.... M....

    Megadeth influence.

    D.... M....

    This is unique

  19. W.... C....

    I'll take the endless trials
    Under the eagle eyes
    But that won't make me second guess
    What I believe or even why

    You've spent a lifetime
    Hiding from the final law
    But when you bow before The King
    You'll have to answer for it all

    Are you ready?

    The Devil doesn't live here
    Only, Jesus
    Sold out with no fear
    Only to Jesus

    You take the bet with
    Every odd against my soul
    But I'm a wrecking ball
    And nothing's gonna stop me, you should know

    Maybe it bothers you
    That I'm up for the task
    What will you do or say
    When you have to remove the ugly mask

    Will you be ready?

    The Devil doesn't live here
    Only, Jesus
    Sold out with no fear
    Only to Jesus

    The Devil doesn't live here
    Only, Jesus
    Sold out with no fear
    Only to Jesus

    The Devil
    Only
    Sold out (Sold out to Jesus)
    Only (Jesus)

    Sold out to Jesus

  20. R.... L....

    The guitarist is impressive...the drummer is kickin....yet it all just sounds like shit.

  21. M.... G....

    KIX Some ASS !

  22. s.... r....

    Thanks for all the hard work that you guys have done. I know many souls have been touched by Christ's love through you're steadfast talents. I think it would really be cool if you guys and Megadeth could get together if nothing else but just to talk. PS you dudes have killer covers too!

  23. T.... R....

    fricken rocks

  24. T.... R....

    DAMN THE MORE I LISTEN THE MORE I LIKE!!! KICK ASS!!

  25. T.... R....

    THOUGHT IT WAS "HOT FOR TEACHER TO START" DAMN!!! WTF LOL!! LOVE IT

  26. T.... R....

    robert sweet kicken ass!!!

  27. R.... F....

    Pooloo See Bagoomba!!!!!

  28. R.... Q....

    This song sounds like Thrash Metal

  29. R.... Q....

    Get out satan!the only one that can be here Is Jesus Christ

  30. W.... L....

    Brilliant!

  31. R.... Q....

    Get away satan i dont need you anymore i have Christ with me im not gonna get fooled by you anymore the father of lies

  32. F.... S....

    This has got to be Robert’s own “Painkiller “ tribute drum intro. Unfortunately I missed their show here in Houston last night. I will go to my drums now and rock out some Stryper tunes.

  33. D.... L....

    Sounds like Roberts been wood shedding. This is some of the best work I’ve heard outa him. The band I was in in the late 90’s opened up for his side project and he was definitely missing the Stryper days cause he’s shredding now.

  34. J.... P....

    God has blessed them.. they are all in their 50's …. still sound great!!!

  35. A.... Y....

    Sounds like Krokus headhunters

  36. J.... W....

    If any band, artist or metal music lover dislikes or hates Stryper, either past or present, is because of two main reasons. 1. Persecution 2. Jealousy. Its that simple and the equation is simple too. God = Freedom. Satan = Slavery. Oz = Guitar god.

  37. R.... W....

    Why in the hell was this not the first single?!

  38. K.... C....

    Sold out for Jesus

  39. J.... C....

    \m/Love playing too Stryper on my kit.\m/

  40. L.... R....

    Awesome! Stryper is back better than ever. I heard a little bit of "Resurrection Band" in some of the guitar work.

  41. K.... C....

    Best guitar solos ever!

  42. C.... A....

    There you go! This one & God Damn Evil... our marching themes! Last days anthems - Armor Up! Wow, made me smile!

  43. B.... D....

    Its sounds like metal church meets saxon lol badass shit tho

  44. K.... C....

    I love stryper!!!!!

  45. B.... ....

    This album is an absolute triumph! The Yellow and Black Attack is still kicking ass!

  46. T.... M....

    Reminds me of sinner swing by van halen

    T.... M....

    Tyler Morin completely opposite message though!

  47. R.... H....

    Who are the two people who don't like this? Do you even get the real point of all this good stuff? Jesus KING of KINGS !!

    R.... H....

    The devil may not live here anymore buy Haysoos does.

    R.... H....

    They probably support the devil. Only reason why they are not sold out to Jesus.

  48. j.... ....

    Wow! Wow! Wow! Love this one!

  49. F.... ....

    YEEEAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!

  50. B.... ....

    kind of makes me think of MotorHead in the beginning...

    B.... ....

    BornDistracted you're right a lot of Lemmy in that baseline.

  51. K.... C....

    Its what i call rapid fire hard rock.fully fast fully understandable. Clean loud clear stylish.

  52. K.... C....

    This is heavy rock. Not death metal. There's a diff.i love this.i don't like death metal.

    K.... C....

    Praising jesus wow!!!

  53. w.... s....

    Wow,ooh yeah

  54. M.... G....

  57. E.... R....

    Praise God for your Gift .all glory to Jesus Christ.

  58. m.... 5....

    🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

  59. R.... F....

    This song proves that Stryper can still pound out a new ass kicker every time. I wish every song was like this on the album, BUT this is still an awesome Stryper album! KEEP IT GOING STRYPER!!

  60. i.... ....

    i'm about to say something blasphemous, no not the title of this album (just kidding) but this album could be on par with To Hell with the Devil. I never thought i would say that about any Stryper album. I still rank THWTHD as number 1 for sentimental reasons but man they came close with this one.

  61. K.... C....

    Unbelievable!!

  62. K.... C....

    Best stuff ever omg thank you!!!

  63. K.... C....

    Unreal good!!!!!

  64. J.... W....

  72. K.... C....

    Culmination of stryper wow wowza wtf wow

  73. K.... C....

    Nothing in rock heavy metal touches this band ive heard it all..this is as fast as it gets with clarity and loudness fast.totally superior to anything in history with a great message..this cements stryper as the best ever!

    K.... C....

    fooser77 i listened to fleshkiller and it sucks bad.thats death metal yuk.im sure it kills the soul as well as the flesh.lmai

    K.... C....

    fooser77 listened to galaxtic cowboys.omg terrible.

    K.... C....

    fooser77 megadeth is ok but evil. Next.

    K.... C....

    fooser77 megadeth has no true rhythmic melody, its mostly exaggerated. Oz fox and micheals guitar work sounds better.that said ive been stryper fan since 13, im 48. Megadeth does nothing for my soul..thank you for playing tho.

    K.... C....

    fooser77 have you heard the covering. Stryper can play that stuff easy..the bands you showed me, stryper can play blindfolded behind thier backs but why do that its trash music only megadeth slightly ok.strypers way way better.bloodgood has some good work tho and the lead singer pretty old but can outsing most, just like micheal sweet great.i always try listening to wide range of music but i always come back to stryper.its just great.

  74. K.... C....

    Drums vocal wow wow wow

  75. K.... C....

    Just wow wow guitars wow

  76. V.... J....

    Stryper: The masters of metal! Great drum intro . . Only J E S U S ! !

  77. M.... F....

    my favorite song on the album!

  78. L.... D....

    This sounds kinda thrashy! I like

  79. S.... D....

    Sucks unoriginal. Junk-trash. The title of this record is blasphemy. If you want to hear this band at their finest listen to "No more hell to pay" wich is a masterpiece, the best record since "soilders" This album will go in the "murder by pride" and "reborn" category SUCKS!!!!!!

    S.... D....

    TheGr8Tony is trump here? Lol

    S.... D....

    Lol..ouch, Keith!

    S.... D....

    DUDE you are on every track complaining. Do us all a favor and leave please..

    S.... D....

    Scott White he is on every track saying same thing.lol i think its timothy gains

    S.... D....

    If that's true, Tim needs a life.

  80. A.... W....

    This song can melt faces. :) Awesome!!

  81. A.... P....

    Just amazing. What a great album. Thanks for all your music Stryper. Fantastic!!!

  82. D.... D....

    Fantastic, frenetic rocker! Bullet lyrics. Flat out killer!

  83. T.... B....

    You guys kicked Metallica Ass on This one!

    T.... B....

    Not a single song on this album tops Spit out the Bone. Sad but True. Love both albums.

  84. D.... G....

    Extremely killer!!!

  85. R.... R....

    Robert Sweet💪

    R.... R....

    RICHARD RODRIGUEZ
    So agree!!! Robert is amazing!!

    R.... R....

    Beast mode...💪

  86. T.... ....

    Yikes. Would like to see today's 25 yr. old "superstars" try to pull this off...

    T.... ....

    They couldn't.

  87. L.... T....

    Reminds me of Rock the hell out of you.

    L.... T....

    Leonard Turley agreed

  88. B.... H....

    Rob’s drumming sounds killer!

    B.... H....

    Except the snare sounds crappy. He had the best snare sound in the 80's.

  89. R.... T....

    "Some Hot for Teacher" riffage.. nice..They've always said Priest, Van Halen, UFO were some of their biggest influences.. I hear a lot of those three in this album..

    R.... T....

    Ryan T but better

    R.... T....

    Ryan T kinda a combo of three

    R.... T....

    *Ryan T* I was hoping that they would have said the JESUS was their Biggest Influence. . .Just sayin

    R.... T....

    that's why all three of those bands you mentioned were ummm covered on their "the covering" album.

    R.... T....

    Have u heard their COVERINGS ALBUM/CD?
