"BEHIND THE SCENES"

Prelude
The Bible said there'd come a man
With an evil secret band,
Of men who'd rule our planet from behind the scenes.
Well they've nearly reached their goal,
As the prophecy foretold,
So I think we'd better take a look behind the scenes:

Verse 1
Moving in so peaceably,
Scheming so relentlessly,
Working now for centuries
Behind the scenes,
They follow Satan's great design
To dominate your heart and mind;
Faith and Truth they undermine,
From behind the scenes.

The greatest plot in history,
It's the great conspiracy, let me tell you,

Verse 2
Rulers fear their punishment;
Kings and Queens and Presidents
Obey this New World Government
Behind the scenes.
They call the shots in all the wars,
Send our boys to foreign shores,
Tell us what we're fighting for,
From behind the scenes.

The greatest plot in history,
They're determined to enslave you and me, so I'm sayin':

Chorus 1
No, no, no, don't you be deceived,
Don't be a casualty
In their war on liberty!
Oh, oh, oh, keep your spirit free!-
Heed the voice you hear inside,
Let this warning be your guide;
Beware of their conspiracy, yeah!

Verse 3
Ooh, they own the oil and own the banks,
Control the dollars, yen and francs;
Nations are in debt to those
Behind the scenes.
And gamblers can't resist the call
To bet on stocks that rise and fall,
But when they crash the money's all...
You guessed it: [Behind the scenes!]

Soon they'll require you and me,
To take a number in their One World economy!

Verse 4
With movies, books and magazines,
Images on TV screens,
We're duped by those we've never seen
Behind the scenes.
Morning papers, evening news,
Every medium they can use,
They're shaping public moods and views,
From behind the scenes.

So subtly they hypnotize;
They got you hooked before you realize, realize it!

[Repeat Chorus 1]

Verse 5
Now I hope this helps to shed some light,
So you can follow what is right;
There's a greater force than those who lurk
Behind the scenes.
For when the world is near its end,
The God of Truth will come again,
And pull the curtain on the men
Behind the scenes!

If you believe in what I say,
Pass the warning on today,
Let me hear you sing it:

Chorus 2
No, no, no, don't you be deceived,
Don't be a casualty
In their war on liberty!
Oh, oh, oh, keep your spirit free!-
Jesus wants to be your guide,
Heed His voice you hear inside;
Beware of their conspiracy,
Yeah, yeah, yeah!

[Oh, oh, oh, don't you be deceived!]
Tune in to this reality
There'll soon be no neutrality.
[Oh, oh, oh, keep your spirit free!]
Guard the doorway of your soul,
Don't ever let them get control!

[Oh, oh, oh, don't you be deceived!]
And keep your spirit free!

[Keep your spirit free!]
No, don't you be deceived!
[Don't you be deceived!]
You got to keep your spirit free, yeah!

[Keep your spirit free!]
Ooh, ooh, sing it, sing it, keep on singin' it!
[Don't you be deceived!]
Sayin' you got to keep your spirit, spirit, spirit free!

[Keep your spirit free!]
[Don't you be deceived!]
Don't you be deceived!
Keep your spirit free!

[Keep your spirit free!]
Don't you be deceived!
Keep your spirit free!
[Don't you be deceived!]
