Anchor of My Soul
Anchored in the shelter of God's sanctuary
Enveloped in the presence of the Lord
Here in a heart that is wholly devoted
In weakness in His strength anchored.
The storms of our life prove the strength of our anchor
The integrity of the living God’s control
His power and promises give us hope
This hope we have as an anchor of the soul…
Keep me through the surging tempest
Keep me now from drifting away
Keep me through from the waves of worry
Anchor me and I will stay.
When you are swept off your feet, land on your knees
And cling to the anchor for the anchor holds
Anchoring our faith in the love of God,
The sure and secure anchor of our souls
Stay me in the awful ocean
Of my doubting make an end
For he who doubts is like a wave of the sea
Driven and cast by the raging wind
With patience in His love I'll rest,
While clinging to His guiding hand,
Declaring that our God knows best,
Devastated, in His strength I'll stand.
We’ll anchor our praise to who He is
In this hope we are secure
For Anchored safe in heaven’s harbor
We shall rest forevermore
