Every Time I Feel the Spirit
LYRICS
Refrain:
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.
1. Up on the mountain my Lord spoke, out of his mouth came fire and smoke.
All around me looked so fine, asked my Lord if all was mine.
Refrain
2. Jordan river’s chilly and cold, chills the body but not the soul.
There ain’t but one train runs this track, runs to heaven and runs right back.
Refrain
There’s a Church in the Valley
LYRICS
1. There’s a church in the valley by the wildwood, no lovelier spot in the dale;
No place is so dear to my childhood as the little brown church in the vale.
Refrain:
(Oh come, come, come, come) Come to the church in the wildwood,
Oh come to the church in the vale; No place is so dear to my childhood
As the little brown church in the vale.
2. Oh come to the church in the wildwood, to the trees where the wild flowers bloom;
Where the parting hymn will be chanted, we will weep by the side of the tomb.
Refrain
3. How sweet on a clear Sabbath morning, to list to the clear ringing bell;
Its tones so sweetly are calling, Oh come to the church in the vale.
Refrain
