African American Heritage Hymnal ‎#325

325. Every Time I Feel the Spirit

Refrain:
Every time I feel the Spirit
moving in my heart, I will pray.
Ev'ry time I feel the Spirit
moving in my heart I will pray.

1 Upon the mountain when my God spoke,
Out of God's mouth came fire and smoke.
All around me, it looked so shine,
I asked my Lord if all was mine. [Refrain]

2 'Ol Jordan River, chilly and cold,
It chills the body, but not the soul.
There ain't but one train that's on this track,
It runs to heaven and runs right back. [Refrain]
