Song Lyrics
Anchor of the Soul
Verse 1
In the shadows of the night, when the stars seem out of sight,
Your word, a lamp unto my feet, in the darkest plight.
Storms may rage and winds may howl, yet one thing remains,
In every trial, every tear, Your hope forever sustains.
Chorus
Hope, an anchor of the soul, steadfast and sure,
In the uncertainty, it’s Your promises that endure.
Bright morning star, in the darkest night,
In Your hope, we find the courage, we find the light.
Verse 2
Like a tree by the water, not fearing the heat to come,
Rooted deep in Your love, from which our strength is drawn.
Though the seasons change, Your faithfulness remains,
In the winter of despair, Your hope is our refrain.
Chorus
Hope, an anchor of the soul, steadfast and sure,
In the uncertainty, it’s Your promises that endure.
Bright morning star, in the darkest night,
In Your hope, we find the courage, we find the light.
Bridge
Let this hope rise within, like the dawn of a new day,
Shining brighter and brighter, chasing the shadows away.
In Your hope, let us soar, on wings like eagles we’ll rise,
Above the storms, into the promise, of Your endless skies.
Chorus
Hope, an anchor of the soul, steadfast and sure,
In the uncertainty, it’s Your promises that endure.
Bright morning star, in the darkest night,
In Your hope, we find the courage, we find the light.
Outro
So I’ll cling to this hope, as to an unbreakable thread,
In every joy, in every sorrow, by Your hope, I’ll be led.
Every step I take, let it be a testament of faith,
For in Your anchor of hope, we find the strength to wait.
Pray for those facing turmoil to receive the unshakable anchor of hope in Christ. May your soul be anchored in eternal hope, unmoved by trial and steadfast in peace.Spiritual Engagement
