Every Time I Feel the Spirit

Refrain:
    Every time I feel the Spirit 
    moving in my heart I will pray.
    Yes, every time I feel the Spirit 
    moving in my heart I will pray.

1.  Upon the mountain, when my Lord spoke,
    Out of God's mouth came fire and smoke.
    Looked all around me, it looked so fine,
    Till I asked my Lord if all was mine.
    (Refrain)

2.  Jordan river, chilly and cold,
    It chills the body but not the soul.
    There is but one train upon this track;
    It runs to heaven and then right back.
    (Refrain)
