In de Lord, in de Lord,
My soul's been anchored in de Lord.
In de Lord, in de Lord,
My soul's been anchored in de Lord.
1 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,
My soul's been anchored in de Lord,
My soul's been anchored in de Lord. [Refrain]
2 Goin' shout an' pray an' never stop
My soul's been anchored in de Lord;
Until I reach de mountain top.
My soul's been anchored in de Lord,
My soul's been anchored in de Lord,
My soul's been anchored in de Lord. [Refrain]
