Hymnal: The Welcome Voice #94 (1884) Hymnal Title: The Welcome Voice First Line: When I can read my title clear Refrain First Line: We will stand the storm Lyrics: 1 When I can read my title clear
To mansions in the skies,
I'll bid farewell to every fear,
And wipe my weeping eyes.
Chorus:
We will stand the storm,
We will anchor by and by, by and by,
We will stand the storm,
We will anchor by and by, by and by.
2 Should earth against my soul engage,
And fiery darts be hurled,
Then I can smile at Satan's rage,
And face a frowning world.
[Chorus]
3 Let cares like a wild deluge come,
Let storms of sorrow fall,--
So I but safely reach my home,
My God, my heaven, my all.
[Chorus]
4 There I shall bathe my weary soul
In seas of heavenly rest,
And not a wave of trouble roll
Across my peaceful breast.
[Chorus]
Anchor By and By
