Representative Text

1 My hope in Christ is bright and clear,
In life or death ’twill never fail;
The tempest’s rage I need not fear,
My anchor holds within the veil.

Refrain:
Thy promise, Lord, will never fail,
My anchor holds within the veil;
Thy promise, Lord, will never fail,
My anchor holds within the veil.

2 The cable of my faith is strong,
Against it hell cannot prevail;
Though winds are blowing loud and long,
My anchor holds within the veil. [Refrain]

3 Let storms of trial do their best,
And beat my soul in furious gale,
My safety they can ne’er molest,
My anchor holds within the veil. [Refrain]

4 Thy promise, Lord, I know is sure,
Tho’ Satan oft its truth assail;
My ship of faith is made secure,
My anchor holds within the veil. [Refrain]
