VERSE 1:
The Spirit of the Sov-'reign Lord is up-on you,
Because He has anoint-ed you to preach good news
The Spirit of the Sov-'reign God is up-on you,
Because He has anoin-ted you to preach good news
He has sent you to the poor,
(This is the year)
To bind up the broken hearted;
(This is the day)
To bring freedom to the captives,
(This is the year)
And to release the ones in darkness.
CHORUS:
(This is the year) of the favor of the Lord.
(This is the day) Of the vengeance of our God.
(This is the year) Of the favor of the Lord.
(This is the day) Of the vengeance of our God.
VERSE 2:
The Spirit of the Sov-'reign Lord is up-on us,
Because He has anoint-ed us to preach good news.
The Spirit of the Sov-'reign God is up-on us,
Because He has anoin-ted us to preach good news
He will comfort all who mourn,
(This is the year)
He will provide for those who grieve in Zion,This is the day
He will pour out the oil of gladness;
(This is the year)
Instead of mourning, you will praise.
