[C]
[F]
I [Bb]
have journeyed [F] through [Bb] the long dark nights,
[F] [Em] And [Dm] I've been out on [C] life's raging seas.
[Gm] And I was always there, my faith alone,
[F] [C] Never [Dm] was my sight known.
[Bb] But always [C]
I found his eyes [F] were watching me.
[G]
And the [F] anchor holds,
Though the [Bb] ship is battered.
The [C] anchor holds,
Though the [F] ship's arch cold.
[C] I [F] have fallen on [Cm]
these,
[F] As [Bb] I face [F] my [Gm] raging sea.
The [Em] anchor, the anchor would hold,
[C]
In spite [F] of the storm.
[Bb] I had my visions, [F] and as a young man,
[Bb] I dreamed big dreams.
And [F] [C] then one day, [Dm]
I held them all [C] in my hand.
[Gm] But there's one thing [C] I never knew,
[F] And that was [C] someday,
[Dm] I'd watch them all slip through [Bb] my hands,
[C]
Like they were only [F] grains of sand.
And then I [Bb] met Jesus, and the anchor [F] holds,
Though the ship [Bb] is battered.
The [C] anchor holds,
Though the [F] ship's arch cold.
[C] And I have fallen,
Together [Dm] we've been through the heat,
We've been through the cold,
And [G] he's kept me all [C] the way,
And still the anchor [F] holds,
Though this old [Bb] ship is battered, The [C] anchor
