Christ, the Sure and Steady Anchor

/!C

intro: C - F2 - Am7 - F2-(F/G)

F/G        C        F/C   G/C C
Christ the sure and stead-y   anchor
       F    Gsus    C
In the fury of  the storm
         C        F/C   G/C  C
When the winds of doubt blow through me
       Gsus                G7
And my sails have all been torn

C/E    F2                C/E
In the suffering, in the sorrow
        F2            G   Am
When my sinking hopes are few
       F2               G/B C
I will hold fast to the an--chor
         Fmaj7  Gsus   (C)
It shall never  be  re-moved

interlude: C - F2 - Am7 - F2-(F/G)

F/G        C        F/C   G/C C
Christ the sure and stead-y   anchor
          F       Gsus  C
While the tempest rages on
          C      F/C    G/C C
When temp-tation claims the battle
       Gsus                G7
And it seems the night has won

C/E    F2                    C/E
Deeper still, then, goes the anchor
         F2           G  Am
Though I justly stand ac-cused
       F2               G/B C
I will hold fast to the an--chor
         Fmaj7  Gsus   (C)
It shall never  be  re-moved

interlude: C - F2 - Am7 - F2-(F/G)

F/G        C        F/C   G/C C
Christ the sure and stead-y   anchor
            F         Gsus C
Through the floods of unbe-lief
          C        F/C G/C C
Hopeless, somehow, O   my  soul, now
          Gsus           G7
Lift your eyes to Calvar-y

C/E     F             C/E
This my ballast of as-surance
        F2         G  Am
See His love forev-er proved
       F2             G/B C
All my hope is in the an--chor
         Fmaj7 Gsus   (C)
It shall never be  re-moved

interlude: C - F2 - Am7 - F2-(F/G)

F/G        C        F/C   G/C C
Christ the sure and stead-y   anchor
      F        Gsus    C
As we face the wave of death
           C           F/C G/C C
When these trials give way to  glory
      Gsus           G7
As we draw our final breath

C/E     F                    C/E
We will cross that great hor-izon
          F2            G  Am
Clouds be-hind and life se-cured
        F2               G/B  C
And the calm will be the bett-er
        Fmaj7       Gsus   C
For the storms that we  en-dured

C/E    F                    C/E
Christ the shore of our sal-vation
     F2           G  Am
Ever faithful, ev-er true
        F2               G/B Am
We will hold fast to the an--chor
         Fmaj7 Gsus   (C)
It shall never be  re-moved
