Everytime I Feel The Spirit

Singer - Leon Bibb 
 
 Every time I feel the spirit moving in my heart, I will pray 
 Every time I feel the spirit moving in my heart, I will pray

 On the mountain my Lord spoke 
 Out His mouth came fire and smoke 
 In the valley on my knees
 Asked my Lord have mercy please 
 
 Every time I feel the spirit moving in my heart, I will pray 
 Every time I feel the spirit moving in my heart, I will pray

 Jordan River, chilly and cold 
 Chills the body but not the soul 
 All around me, looked so shine
 Asked my Lord if all were mine

 Every time I feel the spirit moving in my heart, I will pray 
 Every time I feel the spirit moving in my heart, I will pray

Songwriter: Traditional Spiritual
