The Spirit of the Lord (Folk)

[verse] The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because He has anointed me To bring the good news to the poor. And heal the broken hearted The Spirit of the Lord is on me, To open up the blind man’s eyes To set all the captives free, declare the Lord’s favor [chorus ] Every knee will bow, Every tongue will confess Jesus is the Lord. Yes Every knee will bow, Every tongue will confess Jesus is the Lord [verse] I have a crown of beauty instead of ashes, A garment of praise instead of despair The oil of gladness instead of mourning, I’m Planted for His Glory I am a priest of God, His special treasure, With a double portion instead of shame I rejoice in my inheritance, Forever joy is mine [chorus] Every knee will bow, Every tongue will confess Jesus is the Lord. Yes Every knee will bow, Every tongue will confess Jesus is the Lord [bridge] We’re a chosen people, a royal priesthood, A Holy nation, redeemed by the Lord We’re a chosen people, a royal priesthood, A Holy nation, redeemed by the Lord [instrumental] [chorus] Every knee will bow, Every tongue will confess Jesus is the Lord. Yes Every knee will bow, Every tongue will confess Jesus is the Lord [chorus ] Every knee will bow, Every tongue will confess Jesus is the Lord. Yes Every knee will bow, Every tongue will confess Jesus is the Lord
