ANCHOR-HOLDS

1. I, STARTED OUT TO WIN THIS RACE. TO SERVE THE LORD, AND TO LOOK UPON HIS FACE. BUT THE WAY’S BEEN LONG, AND THE WAY’S BEEN ROUGH, BUT THERE’S ONE THING FOR SURE. I’VE GOT MY MIND MADE UP.

(CHORUS)
I’VE GOT MY FEET ON THE ROCK, AND MY MIND’S MADE UP. THOUGH I WALK THROUGH THE LONELY VALLEY, AND I DRINK FROM A BITTER CUP. WHEN THE DEVIL COMES A KNOCKING, SHOWING ME AN EASIER WAY. I STAND RIGHT FLAT ON MY FEET, I THROW MY HEAD IN THE AIR, I LOOK HIM STRAIGHT IN THE EYE, I SAY MY FOOT’S ON THE ROCK AND MY MIND’S MADE UP.

2. NOW JOB WAS A MAN WHO WAS TEMPTED, IN EVERY WAY. THE DEVIL TOOK HIS FAMILY, HE LAY SICK NIGHT AND DAY. HIS WIFE CAME A SAYING, CURSE GOD, YOU’VE HAD ENOUGH. HE SAID, YOU TALK LIKE A FOOLISH WOMAN. I’VE GOT MY MIND MADE UP.
