81. I'm Gonna Sing

1 I'm gonn'a sing when the Spirit says a-Sing,
I'm gonn'a sing when the Spirit says a-Sing,
I'm gonn'a sing when the Spirit says a-Sing,
And obey the Spirit of the Lord.

2 I'm gonn'a shout when the Spirit says a-Shout,
I'm gonn'a shout when the Spirit says a-Shout,
I'm gonn'a shout when the Spirit says a-Shout,
And obey the Spirit of the Lord.

3 I'm gonn'a preach when the Spirit says a-Preach,
I'm gonn'a preach when the Spirit says a-Preach,
I'm gonn'a preach when the Spirit says a-Preach,
And obey the Spirit of the Lord.

4 I'm gonn'a pray when the Spirit says a-Pray,
I'm gonn'a pray when the Spirit says a-Pray,
I'm gonn'a pray when the Spirit says a-Pray,
And obey the Spirit of the Lord.

5 I'm gonn'a sing when the Spirit says a-Sing,
I'm gonn'a sing when the Spirit says a-Sing,
I'm gonn'a sing when the Spirit says a-Sing,
And obey the Spirit of the Lord.
