STAND THE STORM
Traditional Negro Spiritual
Edited and additional verses by Susan Hinton


REFRAIN
O stand the storm, it won't be long,
We'll anchor by and by,
O stand the storm, it won't be long,
We'll anchor by and by.

My ship is on the ocean,
We'll anchor by and by.
My ship is on the ocean,
We'll anchor by and by.

She's making for the kingdom,
We'll anchor by and by.
She's making for the kingdom,
We'll anchor by and by.

When shall I reach that happy place?
We'll anchor by and by.
When shall I reach that happy place
We'll anchor by and by.

My ship is heavy laden,
We'll anchor by and by.
My ship is heavy laden,
We'll anchor by and by.

When shall I see my Father's face?
We'll anchor by and by.
When shall I see my Father's face?
We'll anchor by and by.

I hear the angels calling,
We'll anchor by and by.
I hear the angels calling,
We'll anchor by and by.
