The Anchor

THE ANCHOR

Verse 1
The waves are high, the wind is cold
The stories of my fear are getting old
I’m tired of trying to stay afloat
While the storm is raging ‘round this boat
But then I see You walking on the sea
Reaching out a hand to rescue me

Chorus 1
You are the anchor in the deep
A promise that You’re gonna keep
When the ground beneath is giving way
You’re the word that I’m gonna say
I’m holding on, I’m holding fast
To a love that’s always gonna last

Verse 2
My feet are set on higher ground
The silence is a beautiful sound
No more running from the pouring rain
You’ve taken all the power from the pain
I’m standing where the water meets the land
Supported by the hollow of Your hand

Chorus 2
You are the anchor in the deep
A promise that You’re gonna keep
Through the fire and the rising flood
I am covered by Your perfect blood
I’m holding on, I’m holding fast
To a love that’s always gonna last

Rap Section
Yeah, I’ve been drifting...
Looking for a harbor but the map was missing 
In a cycle full of struggle, never listening
Thinking I could steer the ship through the hurricane 
But the salt in the wounds only added to the pain. 
I was sinking in the "what-ifs" and the "could-have-beens"
Caught in the current of my own secret sins
But the Anchor dropped heavy, hit the bottom of the floor
Found a peace I never knew, heard a knock at the door. 
You didn't just stop the storm, You walked me through the center
Into the holy place where only grace can enter
No more treading water just to keep my head up high
I’m anchored to the Truth, I’m finished with the lie.
Yeah, I’m finished with the lie.

Chorus 3
You are the anchor in the deep
A promise that You’re gonna keep
The wind can blow and the sea can roar
But I’m not drifting anymore
I’m holding on, I’m holding fast
To a love that’s always gonna last

Outro
I’m holding on
I’m holding on to You
Your holding on
Your holding on to Me
Your My anchor
