"If You're Going Through Hell (Before the Devil Even Knows)" is a single, released by country music artist Rodney Atkins, as the lead-off single to his 2006 album "If You're Going Through Hell". The song became a Number One hit on the U.S. "Billboard" Hot Country Songs chart, spending four weeks at the top, in addition to reaching the Top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100. "If You're Going Through Hell" was named the No. 1 song of 2006 on the Billboard magazine year-end countdown chart.

The title was inspired by two quotes: one from Winston Churchill ("If you're going through Hell, keep going.") and the other, an old Irish toast ("May you be in Heaven five minutes before the devil knows you're dead").
