Biography:
Formed in 1983 in La Mirada, California by brothers Michael and Robert Sweet and guitarist Oz Fox as Roxx Regime, they would change their message and name to Stryper to go on to be the first Christian rock band to be recognized by the mainstream.
According to the To Hell With The Devil Songfacts, Stryper took their name from a Bible verse Isaiah 53: 5, which says "….by His stripes we are healed." Stryper they explained was an acronym meaning "Salvation Through Redemption Yielding Peace, Encouragement and Righteousness."

ARTIST: STRYPER
ALBUM: REBORN
TITLE: PASSION
B
I’m all alone and no one’s home
D
I cannot find my way
B
No bed, no lights, no telephone
D
It’s no place to stay
G
Don’t You know, don’t You know
B
I built this life from in and out
D
Pursued a career
B
That weakened me to petty doubt
D
And frivolous fear
G
Don’t You know, don’t You know
CHORUS:
Jesus Christ, I want to serve You
I want what You want for me
Sacrifice, I don’t deserve You
Through Your passion I am free
B
It’s funny how I see myself
D
As wounded and scarred
B
When my reality itself
D
Proved selfish and hard
G
Don’t You know, oh, don’t You know
B
I’m living in a painted world
D
Where everything’s dry
B
The only water that I’ve seen
D
Was painfully cried
G
Don’t You know, don’t You know
BRIDGE:
Hey I want what You want for me
Yeah I want what You want for me
I want what You want for me
I want what You want for me
B
I’m all alone and no one’s home
D
I cannot find my way
B
No bed, no lights, no telephone
D
It’s no place to stay
(Repeat Chorus)
