I have journeyed through the long dark night
Out on the open sea
By faith alone, sight unknown
And yet His eyes are 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
But the anchor holds, in spite of the storm.
I've had visions and I've had dreams
I've even held them in my hands
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
But the anchor holds, in spite of the storm.
I have been young, but I am older now
There has been beauty these eyes have seen
But it was in the night, through the storms of my life
Oh that's when God proved his love to 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
But the anchor holds, in spite of the storm.
I have fallen on my knees as I face the raging seas
But the anchor holds (the anchor holds)
In spite of the storm.
