I almost hear the music Soft and low. [Refrain] 4 O heaving, swelling billows, Bear onward to my home! Beyond these dreary headlands I see its shining dome. There, there my fainting spirit No more for rest shall sign; 'Tis there I hope to anchor By and by. [Refrain] Scripture: John 14:2 Used With Tune: THERE'S ROOM FOR YOU TO ANCHOR
