The Spirit Of The Lord
(*inclusive language version)

    G              Em     C   D
The spirit of our God is upon me,
      G      Em    C       D
Because God has annointed me
       G          Em        C - D
To preach good news to the poor.
          G            Em
God has sent me to proclaim
     C            D
Realease to the captives
     G                 Em           C-D
And recovering of the sight to the blind.
G           Em
To set at liberty
C               D
Those who are oppressed
         G           Em    C    D      G
To proclaim the acceptable year of our God.

*Original lyrics

The spirit of our Lord is upon me
Because he has annointed me
To preach good news to the poor
He has sent me to proclaim
Release to the captives
And recovering of the sight to the blind
To set at liberty
Those who are oppressed
To proclaim the acceptable Year of the Lord
