IT IS EXPEDIENT FOR ME TO GO

Jesus said, it is expedient 
for me to go away
Then all send you another
comforter to guide you from
day to day
So they tarried in Jerusalem
for power would come from
high
That same spirit that they
received will in my heart abide.

CHORUS
I can feel the Holy Spirit
Oh dwelling deep within
Well sometimes it feels so gentle
And sometimes like a mighty
rushing wind,
But that same Spirit that raised Jesus
up from the dead and
from the grave,
It shall raise, this sore body up
and take me home some day.

Oh they laid Him in an empty tomb
And they rolled the old
stone at the door;
They put soldiers, there to guard Him,
you know they thought they’d run
away with the Lord,
But on the third day,
the stone was rolled away
And He came forth from the grave
That same Spirit that raised Jesus
up will take me home some day.
