Subject: The Black Fox
Hi, I'm trying to get one line from a song called "The Black Fox". It's in the DT database, but I'm not sure that transcrption is correct. I'm looking for the first line of the 4th verse; which the DT gives as:

"And there is strength in me/And I will have my chase..."

I learned the song from an album by Chris Foster, and it sounds to me like he's singing:

"And I swear my strength shall lead me..."

Does anyone out there know:

1. Who wrote the song?

2. What's the correct text of this line?

3. Whatever happened to Chris Foster? He had two GREAT albums on Topic in the 70's, but I haven't seen anything by him since. Does he have any other recordings out in England that just never made it to the USA?

Thanks!
