The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord
Is upon you
Because he has anointed you to preach
good news (2x)

He has sent you to the poor
To bind up the broken hearted
To bring freedom to the captives
And to release the ones in darkness

The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord
Is upon us
Because he has anointed us to preach
Good news (2x)

He will comfort all who mourn
(This is the year)
He will provide for those who grieve
(This is the day)
He will pour out the oil of gladness
(This is the year)
Instead of mourning you will praise

This is the year of the favor of the Lord
This is the day of the vengeance of our God
