Lyrics
ANCHOR FOR THE SOUL
Short Intro [13 sec.]
Your soul is precious, given from above,
Made by the Creator, fashioned out of love.
Innocent and pure, with a heart full of light,
But the world brings temptations, day and night.
A little compromise, a little lie,
A little darkness slowly passing by.
There's a battle for the heart we cannot see,
Between what pulls us down and who we're meant to be.
Chorus
He's the anchor for the soul,
When the raging waters roll.
When temptation starts to blow,
He's the rock beneath our soul.
Steadfast and immovable,
When everything around us goes,
From the day we're born until we're old,
He's the keeper of our soul.
[Verse 2 – [THE SEVEN]
Seven deadly voices come knocking at the door,
Whispering the same old lies they've whispered before.
PRIDE says, “You don't need anybody else.”
GREED says, “Take a little more for yourself.”
LUST says, “Follow every feeling that you feel.”
ENVY says, “Why should they have what you can't steal?”
GLUTTONY says, “Just one more won't hurt.”
WRATH says, “Get even—make somebody hurt.”
SLOTH says, “Tomorrow, you can make things right.”
SEVEN little voices trying to steal the light.
Pre Chorus
They promise satisfaction,
They promise worldly gold,
But every empty promise
Takes another piece of soul.
Chorus
He's the anchor for the soul,
When the raging waters roll.
When temptation starts to blow,
He's the rock beneath our soul.
Steadfast and immovable,
When everything around us goes,
From the day we're born until we're old,
He's the keeper of our soul.
Bridge
We chase the things that glitter,
We measure what we own,
Build our little kingdoms,
Then wonder why we're alone.
We trade eternal treasure
For things that fade away,
But mercy keeps on calling,
And grace still makes a way.
Look beyond the storm clouds,
Look beyond your fear.
The One who made your soul
Has never left you there.
[DROP – SOFT]
You may stumble…
You may fall…
But HE has been with you
Through it all.
[FINAL CHORUS – [Steady]
He's the anchor for the soul,
When the raging waters roll.
He's the compass when we're lost,
He's our Savior at the cross.
Steadfast and immovable,
His truth will never fold.
From the day we're born until we're old,
He's the keeper of our soul.
He's the anchor…
He's the anchor…
He's the anchor for the soul.
[OUTRO – SOFT]
Your soul is precious,
It was given from above.
Guard that precious treasure,
And hold fast to His love.
When the winds begin to blow
And the waters start to roll,
All thanks to Jesus.
He's the anchor for your soul.
