Don't know about Marian Anderson's, but is this what you're looking for?
EVERY TIME I FEEL THE SPIRIT
CHORUS:
Every time I feel the Spirit
Moving in my heart I will pray (2x)
Upon the mountain my God spoke
O'er the mount (OR from his mouth) came fire and smoke
All around me looked so fine
I asked my God if all was mine
Chorus
Jordan's River is chilly and cold
It chills the body but not the soul
There ain't but one train on this track
Runs to heaven and right back
Chorus
My hymnal gives it as "African American spiritual c. 1750-1875"
