VERSE 1
 
Christ, the
D 
sure and steady
D 
Anchor
 
In
A/C# 
the
Bm 
fury
A/C# 
of the
D 
storm
 
When the
D 
winds of doubt blow
D 
through me
 
And my
A 
sails have all been
A7 
torn
D/F# 
In the
G 
suffering, in the
D/F# 
sorrow
 
When my
G 
sinking
A 
hopes are
Bm 
few
 
I will
G 
hold
A 
fast to the
A/C# 
An-
Bm 
chor
 
It shall
G 
never
A 
be removed

VERSE 2
 
Christ, the
D 
sure and steady
D 
Anchor
 
While
A/C# 
the
Bm 
tempest
A/C# 
rages
D 
on
 
When temp
D 
tation claims the
D 
battle
 
And it
A 
eems the night has
A7 
won
D/F# 
Deeper
G 
still then goes the
D/F# 
Anchor
 
Though I
G 
justly
A 
stand ac
Bm 
cused
 
I will
G 
hold
A 
fast to the
A/C# 
An-
Bm 
chor
 
It shall
G 
never
A 
be removed

VERSE 3
 
Christ, the
Bm 
sure and steady
Bm 
Anchor
 
Through the
G 
floods of
A 
unbe
Bm 
lief
 
Hopeless
Bm 
somehow, O my
Bm 
soul
 
Now lift your
A 
eyes to Calva
A7 
ry
D/F# 
This my
G 
ballast of as
D/F# 
surance
 
See His
G 
love for
A 
ever
Bm 
proved
 
I will
G 
hold
A 
fast to the
A/C# 
An-
Bm 
chor
 
It shall
G 
never

be removed

VERSE 4
 
Christ, the
D 
sure and steady
D 
Anchor
 
As we
G 
face the
A 
wave of
D 
death
 
When these
D 
trials give way to
D 
glory
 
As we
A 
draw our final
A7 
breath
D/F# 
We will
G 
cross that great hor
D/F# 
izon
 
Clouds be
G 
hind and
A 
life se
Bm 
cure
 
And the
G 
calm
A 
will be the
A/C# 
bet-
Bm 
ter
 
For the
G 
storms that
A 
we en
D 
dure
 
TAG
 
Christ, the
G 
shore of our
D/F# 
salvation
 
Ever
G
