"Servant, Job" lyrics - DAVID OLNEY

DAVID OLNEY
"Servant, Job"

God walking east, Satan walking west
They meet on the road and they stop for a rest
Sitting on a rock passing the time of day
Talking 'bout the people they've met along the way
Talking about the future, talking about the past
And how time seems to slip by so fast
And how hard it is to find something that will last
God said, yeah
God said, yeah
God said, Have you considered my servant, Job?
Have you considered my servant, Job?
There's nowhere in the land
You will find a better man
He'll suffer any pain
Just to glorify my name
He'll go down on his knees
To raise his prayers to me
There's nothing he won't do
He's my servant good and true
Have you considered my servant, Job?
Have you considered my servant, Job?

Satan said to God, I"ve been walking up and down
Walking through the country, the city and the town
Just like you I've been making the rounds
There's always something different, there's always something new
I never get tired, I just love what I do
Satan said, yeah
Satan said, yeah
Satan said, Yes, I've considered your servant, Job
Yes, I've considered your servant, Job
He's a man like all the rest
Nothing more and nothing less
Sure he gives you praise
Look how much it pays
Pretty wife and lots of land
It's not that hard to understand
Let me have him for a while
I'll wipe away that smile
I'll take away his wealth
And I'll take away his health
I'll take all that he's been given
Make him wish he wasn't livin'
I'll leave nothing but his shame
And he'll learn to curse your name
Yes, I considered your servant, Job
Yes, I considered your servant, Job

Have you considered my servant, Job?
Yes, I considered your servant, Job
