Though the Angry Surges Roll
Author: W. C. Martin Hymnal: Hymns for the Living Church #311 (1974) Refrain First Line: And it holds, my anchor holds Lyrics: 1 Though the angry surges roll
On my tempest-driven soul,
I am peaceful, for I know,
Wildly though the winds may blow,
I’ve an anchor safe and sure
That can evermore endure.
Refrain:
And it holds, my anchor holds;
Blow your wildest, then, O gale,
On my bark so small and frail;
By His grace I shall not fail,
For my anchor holds, my anchor holds.
2 Mighty tides about me sweep,
Perils lurk within the deep,
Angry clouds o’ershade the sky,
And the tempest rises high;
Still I stand the tempest’s shock,
For my anchor grips the Rock. (Refrain)
3 I can feel the anchor fast
As I meet each sudden blast,
And the cable, though unseen,
Bears the heavy strain between;
Thro' the storm I safely ride,
Till the turning of the tide. (Refrain)
4 Troubles almost 'whelm the soul;
Griefs like billows o'er me roll;
Tempters seek to lure astray;
Storms obscure the light of day:
But in Christ I can be bold,
I've an anchor that shall hold (Refrain) Scripture: Hebrews 6:19 Languages: English Tune Title: MY ANCHOR HOLDS
