A Sea Shanty for St. Michael and All Angels


 

“He Made the Devil Fall” - a “Sea Shanty”
(Luke 10:18; Rev. 20:10)
Beckmann, Feast of St. Michael and All Angels, 2023

Jesus, he came to Galilee
And he made the devil fall!
And called the twelve to with him be.
And he made the devil fall!

Refrain:
He made the devil fall, my boys,
He makes the devil fall!
Christ the King will come again,
And he’ll make the devil fall! Ho! 

 To them his pow'r was freely giv'n,
And he made the devil fall!
And Satan fell like light’ning from heav'n,
And he made the devil fall! 

He purged our sins; his vict'ry won!
And he made the devil fall!
And rose again to take his throne.
And he made the devil fall! 

He sent St. Michael with his sword,
And he made the devil fall!
And cast that dragon to the earth,
And he made the devil fall! 

He’ll send an angel, the devil to take
And he’ll make the devil fall!
And cast him into the fiery lake!
And he’ll make the devil fall!
