The Carter Family
Anchored in Love
[Verse 1]
I found a sweet haven of sunshine at last
In Jesus abiding above
His dear arms around me are lovingly cast
And sweetly he tells his love
[Chorus]
The tempest is o'er
(The dangerous tempest forever is o'er)
I'm safe evermore
(My anchor is holding, I'm safe evermore)
What gladness, what rapture is mine
(What gladness, what rapture is mine)
The danger is past
(The waters are peaceful, the danger is past)
I'm anchored at last
(My spirit is happy, I'm anchored at last)
I'm anchored in love divine
(I'm anchored in love divine)
[Verse 2]
He saw me endangered and lovingly came
To pilot my stormy doomed soul
Sweet peace he has spoken and bless his sweet name
The billows no longer roll
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
His love shall enfold me through life and in death
Completely I'll trust to the end
I'll praise him each hour and my last fleeting breath
Shall sing of my soul's best friend
[Chorus]
