Anchor

[Verse 1] I believe, I believe, I believe in God, With a surety I hope for a better world above. Belief sparks the fire that kindles action, Faith is the doing—that makes an anchor For the souls of men. God is glorified, God is glorified, Now and forever, to the very end. [Verse 2] My eyes cannot see what the heart knows, The mind seeks a harvest that faith has to sow. Hope shines the light that my feet walk in,.. The trial is heavy in this world below. I walk the lonely night, that true self may be known, The witness becomes sure when His hand is revealed, All shadow, all darkness flee from His sight, Before God's throne, all is bathed in pure light. [Chorus] Faith when the night is long, Hope when the way is dim, Grace through the fire that burns within— Weak things made strong in Him. Weak things made strong in Him. [Verse 3] Fools mock, but they shall mourn, God is just, faithful and true. In His grace my weakness is seen, Flames reveal, the dross burned away, Weakness overcome, His strength revealed. [Bridge] With a broken and a contrite heart I come, Hope is made sure, My faith now stands unshakable. My weakness is made strong— Now I see, my witness is sure. [Outro] The fools may mock, but their laughter will fade, While the debt of my weakness is fully repaid. In the heat of the flame, let the dross be consumed, For in the depth of His grace, my salvation has bloomed. Behold the glory— Of my God, and His Christ. Behold the glory— Of my God, and His Christ.
