Holy Spirit Songtext

Come by here Lord, come by here Come by here, oh come by here Come by here, come by here Mmmmm On the banks of old Lake Bisteneaux 'Neath the cypress and the moss We hammered and we nailed And built a raft to get across And late night by the fire We sang Kumbayah And the Spirit Holy Spirit was flowing Yeah the Spirit Holy Spirit it was a-flowing Oh a twilight time in New York City Descending subway stairs The man whistling out a tune I paid a dollar for my fare And we got on the same train Going uptown down the tracks And we sang out of tune To the clackety-clack-clack And the Spirit Holy Spirit was flowing Yeah the Spirit Holy Spirit it was a-flowing I have felt it on a mountaintop And underneath the stars I felt it in a churchyard And even in some bars It will make you laugh It will make you cry It will make your heart go (ping!) Oh the Spirit Holy Spirit Will make you shout and want to sing Come by here Lord, oh come by here Come by here Lord, come by here Oh come by here Lord, come by here Oh come by here Someone's praying Lord, come by here Someone's praying Lord, come by here Someone's praying Lord, come by here Oh Lord come by here Someone's crying Lord, come by here Someone's crying Lord, come by here Someone's crying Lord, come by here Oh Lord come by here Oh we need you, oh we need you Lord Oh we need you, oh yes we do, yes we do We need you like a father We need you like a mother Yeah we need you like a sister Yeah we need you like brother Oh we need you Lord, oh yes we do, yes we do Oh Lord come by here Oh Lord come by here
