I Got Up and Went
by The Steeles

Album: Greatest Hits

When the Spirit said, "Come"
I got up and went
There at an altar of repentance I knelt
In a little while, Jesus passed by
Lifted the burden of sin from my life
I stayed right there
Till the battle was done
Then I rose up a shouting
That the victory had come
I remember the time
When the Spirit said, "Come"
I got up and went

I did not go when the singer had sung
When the offering was taken, I did not come
When the preacher had preached
I stayed in my seat, stiff as a board
When the choir started singing "Just As I Am"
I did not budge, I had taken my stand
Then something happened
That got both of my feet
Walking right down the aisle

When the Spirit said, "Come"
I got up and went
There at an altar of repentance I knelt
In a little while, Jesus passed by
Lifted the burden of sin from my life
I stayed right there
Till the battle was done
Then I rose up a shouting
That the victory had come
I remember the time
When the Spirit said, "Come"
I got up and went

Well, I do not remember
What the sermon was about
Can I remember the preacher's name
I have my doubts
But I remember the time
When the Spirit of God spoke to my soul
He called me by name and He listed my sins
Said, "Child, you must be born again
I fell on my face, felt amazing grace
How sweet the sound

When the Spirit said, "Come"
I got up and went
There at an altar of repentance I knelt
In a little while, Jesus passed by
Lifted the burden of sin from my life
I stayed right there
Till the battle was done
Then I rose up a shouting
That the victory had come
I remember the time
When the Spirit said, "Come"
I got up and went

I remember the time
When the Spirit said, "Come"
I got up and went
I remember the time
When the Spirit said, "Come"
I got up and went
Got up and went
