[Eb]
[Bb] [Ab]
[Bb] [Eb] [Ab] journey
[Eb] through the [Ab] long dark [Eb] night [Bb] [Cm] out on the [Bb] open sea by
[Fm] [Bb] faith alone
[Eb] [Bb] sight
[Cm] unknown
[Ab] [Eb] and yet [F] his eyes were [Eb] watching [Bb] me the [Eb] anchor holds though the [Ab] ship is
battered the [Bb] anchor holds though the [Eb] sails are torn I have fallen on [Db] my [Eb] knees [Ab] as I [Eb] faced
the [Fm] raging sea the [Bb] anchor holds in spite [Eb] of the storm [Ab] I
[Eb] [Ab] had visions and I had dreams
[Bb] I've [Cm] even held in [Bb] my head
[Fm] but I [Bb] knew
[Eb] [Dm] they would slip [Cm] right through
[Ab] like they [Bb] were only [Eb] grains of [Bb] sand
[Eb] the anchor holds though the ship [Ab] is battered the [Bb] anchor holds though the [Eb] sails are torn
[Ab] as I [Eb] faced the [Fm] raging sea [Bb] the anchor holds in spite [Eb] of the storm
[Ab]
[Eb]
[Cm] beauty
[Bb] these eyes have [Ab] seen through [Eb] the storm [Bb] [Cm]
[Ab] that's where [Fm] I got
[Bb] the [Eb] anchor holds
[Ab] [Eb] though the ship [Ab] is battered the [Bb] anchor holds though the [Eb] sails are [Cm] torn
[Eb] I had [Bbm] visions [Ab] and I [Eb] had dreams I've [Fm] even held in my head but I knew they would slip right through like they were only grains of sand
the [A] anchor holds [Bb] though [Eb] the ship is battered the
[Ab] [Eb] [Fm] anchor
[Bb] holds [Ab] though the sails are torn
like the storm
[Eb] [Ab] [Eb]
