from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

My soul's been anchored in the Lord
 (Sung text for setting by F. Price)
 Matches base text
Language: English 
In de Lord, in de Lord,
My soul's been anchored in de Lord.
Befo' I'd stay in hell one day,
My soul's been anchored in de Lord;
I'd sing an' pray myself away,
My soul's been anchored in de Lord.
I'm goin' to pray an' never stop,
My soul's been anchored in de Lord;
Until I've reached the mountain top,
My soul's been anchored in de Lord.

Composition:

    Set to music by Florence Bea Price (1887 - 1953), "My soul's been anchored in the Lord", spiritual
