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      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      I've had visions   I've had dreams   I've even held them in my hand      But I never knew   They would slip right through   Like they were only grains of sand      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      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      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
