The Anchor Holds
I have journeyed
through the long dark night
Out on the open sea
by faith alone
Sight unknown
and yet HIS eyes, were watching me
The anchor holds
Though the ship is battered
The anchor holds
Though the sails are torn
I have fallen on my knees, as I face the raging seas
The anchor holds in spite of the storm
I've had visions, I've had dreams
I've even held them in my hand
But I never knew, they would slip right through
Like they were only grains of sand
The anchor holds
Though the ship is battered
The anchor holds
Though the sails are torn
I have fallen on my knees, as I face the raging seas
The anchor holds, in spite of the storm
I have been young, but I'm older now
And there has been beauty, these eyes have seen
But it was in the night, through the storms of my life
Oh, that's where God proved
His love for me
The anchor holds
Though the ship's been battered
The anchor holds
Though the sails are torn
I have fallen on my knees
as I face the raging seas
The anchor holds in spite of the storm
I have fallen on my knees
as I face the raging seas
The anchor holds, in spite of the storm
End
through the long dark night
Out on the open sea
by faith alone
Sight unknown
and yet HIS eyes, were watching me
The anchor holds
Though the ship is battered
The anchor holds
Though the sails are torn
I have fallen on my knees, as I face the raging seas
The anchor holds in spite of the storm
I've had visions, I've had dreams
I've even held them in my hand
But I never knew, they would slip right through
Like they were only grains of sand
The anchor holds
Though the ship is battered
The anchor holds
Though the sails are torn
I have fallen on my knees, as I face the raging seas
The anchor holds, in spite of the storm
I have been young, but I'm older now
And there has been beauty, these eyes have seen
But it was in the night, through the storms of my life
Oh, that's where God proved
His love for me
The anchor holds
Though the ship's been battered
The anchor holds
Though the sails are torn
I have fallen on my knees
as I face the raging seas
The anchor holds in spite of the storm
I have fallen on my knees
as I face the raging seas
The anchor holds, in spite of the storm
End
