Anchor Holding Tight

Lyrics

[Verse 1] A stranger's voice came through the line one day, Two friends who swore we'd find our own way. They said we'd be the perfect pair, And God knew love was waiting there. Through eight sweet years the seasons rolled, A quiet promise we did hold. [Chorus] Through the storm and through the light, You've been my anchor holding tight. By faith we stand, in love we stay, God carried us through every day. Whatever comes, whatever's true, I only want to grow old with you. [Verse 2] That first dinner beneath New York skies, Old Ebbitt's morning, tears in my eyes. A home on the water, vows we made, Six children with us as we prayed. Through good and hard we stood as one, Watched every daughter, every son. [Chorus] Through the storm and through the light, You've been my anchor holding tight. By faith we stand, in love we stay, God carried us through every day. Whatever comes, whatever's true, I only want to grow old with you. [Bridge] When shadows came, we didn't fall, Our Savior's grace outlasted all. Through what tried to take you from me, His hand held us, and set us free. [Verse 3] Now grown and grand, our family wide, With little ones close by their side. Some near, some far, but all our own, The greatest blessings we have known. Oh Pitch, my love, my steady friend, On you and God I can depend. [Chorus] Through the storm and through the light, You've been my anchor holding tight. By faith we stand, in love we stay, God carried us through every day. Whatever comes, whatever's true, I only want to grow old with you. [Outro] God bless you, honey, all your days, My Pitch, my love, in every way.
