The anchor holds

(verse 1)

I have jouryed

Through long, dark nights

Out on the open seas

By faith alone

Sight unknown

And yet His eyes were watching me

(chorus)

The anchor holds

Though the ship is battered

The anchor holds

Though the sails are torn

I have fallen on my knees

As I faced the raging seas

The anchor holds

In spite of the storm

(verse 2)

I’ve had visions

I’ve had dreams

I’ve even held them in my hand

I never knew

They would slip right through

Like they were only grains of sand

(bridge)

I have been young

But I am older now

there has been beauty

these eyes have seen

But it was there in the night

Through the storms of my life

that’s where God proved

His love to me
