1017 ANCHOR FOR THE SOUL

Anchor for the soul,

Shelter from the storm;

Thunder and the lightning

Can be very fright'ning,

But God is in control.

Anchor for the soul,

Shelter from the storm;

Manna in the morning,

Blessings overflowing,

Leading us to home.

This world's not my home,

Just a-passing through.

Through this life I wander,

Treasure stored up yonder

Somewhere beyond the blue.

On my way I learn

Through each path I take.

Every day I'm growing,

On my way I'm knowing

Heaven's worth the wait.

When the day is gone,

When my journey ends,

Won't be nothing better

Then to be together

With all my faithful friends.

We'll all join in song

Gathered 'round the throne.

There'll be no more sorrow

Someday when tomorrow

Heaven is our home.
