Sphinx's Revelation or Azor, the Lawbringer?

I have Sphinx's Revelation in several of my EDH decks, because I believe that it is an awesome card that can greatly improve a player's situation in the game, but I am wondering if I should replace it with Azor, the Lawbringer in my decks.

Azor has as triggered ability that is the same as Sphinx's Revelation, and, while the ability can be used only under certain circumstances, it is repeatable, which is very nice, and Azor also has a control ability, in addition to being able to attack and block. My only concern is that Azor is much more expensive and requires a far greater investment of mana to fully gain his benefits, which is certainly something worth considering.

What does everyone else say about this? Should I replace Sphinx's Revelation with Azor, the Lawbringer, or leave the former card in my decks?

I know that no one has yet responded, but I think that I shall keep Sphinx's Revelation in my decks, mainly because Azor simply requires too much investment to produce any significant benefits.
