Ray Boltz The Anchor Holds lyrics

 
The Anchor Holds
Words and music by Lawrence Chewning and Ray Boltz
I have journeyed
Through the long, dark night
Out on the open sea
By faith alone
Sight unknown
And yet His eyes were watching me
CHORUS:
The anchor holds
Though the ship is battered
The anchor holds
Though the sails are torn
I have fallen on my knees
As I faced the raging seas
The anchor holds
In spite of the storm
Ive had visions
Ive had dreams
Ive even held them in my hand
But I never knew
They would slip right through
Like they were only grains of sand
CHORUS
I have been young
But I am older now
And there has been beauty
That these eyes have seen
But it was in the night
Through the storms of my life
Oh, that's where God proved
His love to me
CHORUS (repeat)

At one time in my life i was the ship that was battered and torn, and when jesus touched my life, i understood the meaning of the anchor holds... Friends, family, church, husband or wife, children or relatives, whomever... Will let you down and let you go... But he never will... I love this song and the words god gave ray to write.

Ray boltz did an incredible job with this song. Importantly though are the lyrics. When the world has nothing to cling to, we have jesus our anchor in times of need. And i'm sure with many of us those times are many!

As i sit here in this hospital room watching my precious mama battle alzehimers, we listen to "the anchor holds" and it comforts her. Even though she is so confused at times its as if she's looking right through you, when i play this song for her she looks right at me and we sing the words together. She told me a long time ago she wants this song sang at her funeral (as do i) and she wants us to know when she leaves this world she'll be in heaven waiting for us to join her there on day as long as we remember "the anchor holds. " thank you jesus for all your many blessings on us and for my precious mama who brought us up to believe and love you with all our heart.

There are going to be many storms in our lives but regardless, the anchor will hold in spite of it !!! It is so true and i hold to that truth.

I feel like that the anchor does hold me all the time because there is times that if it wasn't for god i don't know where i would be. He is the stronghold in my life and without him i would be nothing and i could do nothing that he wants me to do. I love him so much and i want to do his will and stay in his will all the time. My hope is that one day everyone will see that they need god and come to him.
