KeyWords: Comfort,

Verse 1
Though the angry surges roll
O'er your tempest-driven soul,
You'll be peaceful, for you'll know,
Wildly though the winds may blow.
You've an anchor safe and sure
That shall evermore endure.

Chorus
And it holds, my anchor holds!
Blow your wildest, then, O gale!
On my bark so small and frail,
Praise God, I shall not fail,
For my anchor holds,
-My anchor holds.

Verse 2
Mighty tides about me sweep,
Perils lurk within the deep,
Angry clouds o'er-shade the sky,
And the tempest rises high.
Still I stand the tempest's shock,
For I'm anchored to the Rock!

[Repeat Chorus]

[Alternate Chorus lyrics:]
And it holds, my anchor holds!
Blow your wildest, then, O gale!
Though our bark is small and frail,
Praise God, we'll never fail!
For our anchor holds,
Our anchor holds.
