The Anchor Holds
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, thats where God proved
His love to me
CHORUS (repeat)
El ancla sostiene
He viajado
A través de la larga y oscura noche
En el mar abierto
Sólo por la fe
Vista desconocida
Y sin embargo Sus ojos me miraban
CORO
El ancla sostiene
Aunque el barco está maltratado
El ancla sostiene
Aunque las velas estén rotas
Me he arrodillado
Mientras me enfrentaba a los mares furiosos
El ancla sostiene
A pesar de la tormenta
He tenido visiones
He tenido sueños
Incluso los he tenido en mi mano
Pero nunca lo supe
Se deslizarían a través de
Como si fueran sólo granos de arena
CORO
He sido joven
Pero ahora soy mayor
Y ha habido belleza
Que estos ojos han visto
Pero fue en la noche
A través de las tormentas de mi vida
Oh, ahí es donde Dios probó
Su amor hacia mí
CORUS (repetir)
