The Anchor Holds

I have journeyed through the long dark night

Out on the open, 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, fallen on my knees

As I faced the raging seas

But the anchor holds in spite of the storm

I’ve had visions and I’ve had dreams

Well, I’ve even held them in my hands

But I never knew

Those dreams could 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, fallen on my knees

As I faced the raging seas

But the anchor holds in spite of the storm

Now I have been young

And I’m a little bit older now

Oh there’s been beauty

These eyes haven’t seen

But it was in that night

That I faced the storms of my life

Oh, that's where, where God proved his love to me

Yes he did

The anchor holds though the ship is battered

The anchor holds though the sails are torn

I have fallen, fallen on my knees

As I faced the raging seas

But the anchor holds in spite of the storm

I said I’ve fallen, fallen

Fallen down on my knees

As I faced the raging seas

But the anchor holds

Oh in spite of the storm

Yeah yeah yeah
