• Anchor (feat. Josh Garrels)

Anchor of my soul, you sustain

When I’m in the storm, you remain

Good to me, good to me

Anchor of my soul, you sustain

When I’m in the storm, you remain

You remain, good to me

Good to me

When it’s a quarter past midnight

And the grey skies fade to black

The waves splash and set me off track

So my vessel might crash or collapse, when I’m attacked

And start wrestling in my head with these bad, memories from my past

I’m aware of my guilt

Overwhelmed and the smell of my blood

Has the sharks that surround me cast under a spell

They waited for me to fall

But when I fell the water got still

And the blood that was spilled protects

It’s the same blood that cleansed me

My only defense against my nemesis

Now I can rest knowing nothing can come against me unless the Father gives consent

Evil intentions will not disturb God’s purposes or interfere so

Whom should I fear if my Anchor is secure?

Learning to consider it pure joy when I’m facing tribulations

Praising God instead of complaining and getting overtaken with bitterness

Looking at the pages of the book of James

And seeing the ways that God works through the trials to make us more mature in our faith

It reminds me how desperate I am in this desert land

Thirsty for your mercy and plan while you give me the strength to stand

You’re my greatest pleasure

Yeah, no matter the weather I face

Lord you never forsake

My fragile life is safe under your sovereign grace

Anchor of my soul, you sustain

When I’m in the storm, you remain

You remain, good to me

Good to me

At some point every human looks right in the eyes of agony

And through tragedy asks himself, ”How can this happen to me?”

You might be the type with enough insight to hold on to your dear life

But slip because your grip is not as tight as you might like

You ain’t immune to it, naw

And if you’re true to yourself then you ain’t new to it

Trusted in self, lusted and lured to it

So when the darkness overwhelms me

And the tide of life rises and swells

“It is well” is what compels me

When faced with adversity, Your truth constantly reminds me that you command the seas with ease

And with words you’re turning wind to breeze

It helps me understand that we stand on solid rock not on sinking sand

Through the providence of pain you perfect your plan

Predestined to be tested when the works

And words of God cooperate and educate men in the great gift of Grace and Faith

And even though it’s obvious when my outlook’s ominous

You’ve bound my heart and my conscience and gave me a constant calmness

So when the pain comes like rain from the parts of life that maintains its strain

I can put my trust in the hands that sustain

It’s profound that with all these sinking ships around me

He surrounds me and he anchors me with his grace abounding

Anchor of my soul, you sustain

When I’m in the storm, you remain

You remain, good to me

Good to me

Oh, Lord

You’re good to me, you’re good to me

Good to me
