	Story Behind the Song Sometimes we need more than just God's defense. Sometimes we need some of His offense. Lyrics (v.1) The Assyrian army camped outside Jerusalem Ready to conquer and level it. But most of the army died in their sleep one night And so the Lord ended that threat. And there's other stories, like the prophets of Baal, Queen Jezebel, Goliath of Gath. These weren't just innocent bystanders. There were enemies who felt the wrath of... (chorus 1) God's backhand. When tough love must get even tougher. God's backhand. When evil plays rough, God can play rougher. (v.2) We're not talking about tennis or ping pong Or any kind of friendly sport. We're talking about God fighting for His people Where someone can really get hurt. But that someone is your enemy Who'd have no qualms about hurting you. So they're not being unfairly treated When they get what is their due, from... (chorus 2) God's backhand. It's as strong as it ever was. God's backhand. It will solve problems that nothing else does. God's backhand. When you need something more than just defense. God's backhand Will send evil flying over the fence. God's backhand.
