Parody of "Spirit in the Sky" by Norman Greenbaum
(Acts 1 & 2)
When He died and was raised from the dead -- taught us all 40 days then He said
Well my friends, It's time to fly, but wait up for the Spirit to arrive
Go wait up for the Spirit from on High
That's who you're gonna know when I fly
When I fly and you may be depressed
He's gonna grow you in faith to pass the test
Prepare yourselves, but don't get so rushed -- God'll have a Friend come teach ya
Don't you know that when I fly -- I'm gonna recommend He put the Spirit in you guys
Gonna recommend He put the Spirit in you guys
To show you miracles, make you wise
When I fly if you wait you'll be blest
He's gonna blow through this place in just a bit LEAD
When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place.
Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven
and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed
to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them.
All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other
tongues as the Spirit enabled them. (NIV)
Never been a preacher but ever since I got that Friend from Jesus
Don't you know I've been on fire 'cause God has filled me up with the Spirit inside
God has filled me up with the Spirit inside
That's why I'm gonna go far and wide
Far and wide with the faith I confess
I'm gonna go every place and tell the rest -- Show 'em the way that's the best
