Donnie Sumner - The Anchor Holds Lyrics. The anchor holds Though the ship is battered The anchor holds Though the sails are torn I have fallen on my knees as I face the raging seas The anchor holds in spite. I have journeyed through the long dark night At all life raging seas, by faith alone Sight unknown and yet His eyes were watching me. Lyrics for The Anchor Holds by Donnie Sumner.

It wasnвЂ™t easy, as my human nature wanted its way вЂ¦ but the love of God prevailed.That was over forty years ago and I will be forever grateful to those special men God put in my life. Slowly GodвЂ™s grace made me realize that I needed Christ in my life and slowly I began to surrender my life over to Him. Then some Christian men began to share the truth with me and slowly, yet surely, these words began to infiltrate my mind and my heart.As I learned more about GodвЂ™s Word and His Son Jesus, it was like a great burden was lifted from me. I lived my early years totally dependent on myself, carrying lifeвЂ™s burdens on my own.I must admit that I didnвЂ™t do it successfully and often found myself confused, frightened, and unsure of what my future would bring. I know firsthand that they changed mine.
