Hymnal | I have an Anchor

1.  Will your anchor hold in the storm of life?

     When the clouds unform their wing of strife;

     When th strong tides lift adn the cables strain,

     Will your anchor drfit, or firm remain?

         We have an anchor that keeps the soul

         steadfast and sure while the billows roll

         Fastened  to the Rock which cannot move

         Grounded firm and deep in the Saviour’s love!

           

2.     It is safely moored, ‘twill the storm withstand

      For ‘tis well secured by the Saviour’s hand

      And the cables passed from His heart to mine

      Can defy the blast, through strength divine

3.   It will firmly hold in the straits of fear

      When the breakers have told the reef is near

      Though the tempest rave and the wild wind blow

      Not an angry wave shall our bark o’er flow

4.   It will surely hold in the floods of  death

      When the waters cold, chill our lastest breath

      On the rising tide it can never fail,

      While our hopes abide within the veil

5.   When our eyes behold, through the gathering night

      The city of gold, our harbour bright

      We shall  anchor fast by the heavenly shore,

      With the storms all past for evermore
