Though The Angry Surges Roll
On My Tempest-Driven Soul,
I Am Peaceful, For I Know,
Wildly Though The Winds May Blow,
I’ve An Anchor Safe And Sure,
That Can Evermore Endure.

And It Holds, My Anchor Holds:
Blow Your Wildest, Then, O Gale,
On My Bark So Small And Frail;
By His Grace I Shall Not Fail,
For My Anchor Holds, My Anchor Holds.

Mighty Tides About Me Sweep,
Perils Lurk Within The Deep,
Angry Clouds O’ershade The Sky,
And The Tempest Rises High;
Still I Stand The Tempest’s Shock,
For My Anchor Grips The Rock.

I Can Feel The Anchor Fast
As I Meet Each Sudden Blast,
And The Cable, Though Unseen,
Bears The Heavy Strain Between;
Through The Storm I Safely Ride,
Till The Turning Of The Tide.

Troubles Almost ‘Whelm The Soul;
Griefs Like Billows O’er Me Roll;
Tempters Seek To Lure Astray;
Storms Obscure The Light Of Day:
But In Christ I Can Be Bold,
I’ve An Anchor That Shall Hold
