We Have An Anchor Tabulatur von Priscilla J. Owens

F    C7   F      Bb   Gm     F      C  F
Will your anchor hold in the storms of life,
F        C             C-Dm  C     G7 C
When the clouds unfold their wings of strife?
C7       F            C               C7   F
When the strong tides lift and the ca-bles strain,
F            F7   Bb        F    C7 F
Will your an-chor drift, or firm re-main?

Refrain
F                      Bb    F
We have an anchor that keeps the soul
F                                    C
Steadfast and sure while the billows roll,
F                    F7    Bb  F   Bb
Fastened to the Rock which can-not move,
F                      Bb     F   C7    F
Grounded firm and deep in the Sav-ior’s love.

Verse 2:
F  C7 F      Bb       Gm        F     C    F
It is safely moored, ’twill the storm with-stand,
F        C            C  Dm  C   G7    C
For ’tis well secured by the Sav-ior’s hand;
C7      F       C               C7       F
And the cables, passed from His heart to mine,
F             F7     Bb    F        C7 F
Can defy that blast, thro’ strength di-vine.

Verse 3:
F  C7   F      Bb   Gm     F       C  F
It will surely hold in the Straits of Fear—
F        C                  C    Dm  C    G7 C
When the breakers have told that the reef is near;
C7         F       C            C7         F
Though the tempest rave and the wild winds blow,
F            F7   Bb        F    C7   F
Not an angry wave shall our bark o’er-flow.

Verse 4:
F  C7   F      Bb   Gm     F      C  F
It will firmly hold in the Floods of Death—-
F        C                 C-Dm C  G7  C
When the waters cold chill our lat-est breath,
C7     F      C           C7    F
On the rising tide it can never fail,
F               F7 Bb       F  C7  F
While our hopes a-bide with-in the Veil.

Verse 5:
F    C7  F       Bb   Gm          F    C    F
When our eyes be-hold through the gath’ring night
F   C             C-Dm C  G7  C
The city of gold, our har-bor bright,
C7       F      C           C7       F
We shall anchor fast by the heav’nly shore,
F               F7  Bb       F  C7 F
With the storms all past for-ev-er-more.
