We have an anchor that keeps the soul
steadfast and sure while the billows roll;
fastened to the Rock which cannot move,
grounded firm and deep in the Saviour’s love!

when the breakers roar and the reef is near?
While the surges rage, and the wild winds blow,
shall the angry waves then your bark o'erflow? [Refrain]

when the waters cold chill your latest breath?
On the rising tide you can never fail,
while your anchor holds within the veil. [Refrain]

the city of gold and the harbour bright?
Will you anchor safe by the heavenly shore,
when life's storms are past for evermore? [Refrain] Topics: The Holy Spirit The Church Celebrates - Death and Grieving; Assurance; Funerals general; Heaven Used With Tune: WILL YOUR ANCHOR HOLD

We love to sing around our King
Author: E. Roberts Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 316 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 43:11 First Line: There is no name so sweet on earth Lyrics: 1 There is no name so sweet on earth,
No name so sweet in heaven,
The name before his wondrous birth
To Christ the Saviour given.
Chorus:
We love to sing around our King,
And hail him blessed Jesus;
For there's no word ear ever heard
So dear, so sweet, as Jesus.
2 His human name they did proclaim
When Abr'am's son they sealed him,
The name that still, by God's good will,
Deliverer revealed him.
3 And when he hung upon the tree,
They wrote this name above him,
That all the world might clearly see,
And evermore might love him.
4 So now upon his Father's throne,
Almighty to release us
From sins and pains, he gladly reigns,
The Prince and Saviour, Jesus.

When the King Shall Come Again
Author: Christopher Idle (1938-) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 20 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 43:16-21 Lyrics: 1 When the King shall come again,
all his power revealing;
splendour shall announce his reign,
life and joy and healing:
earth no longer in decay,
hope no more frustrated;
this is God's redemption day
longingly awaited.
2 In the desert, trees take root,
fresh from God's creation;
plants and flowers and sweetest fruit
join the celebration;
rivers spring up from the earth,
barren lands adorning.
Valleys, this is your new birth;
mountains, greet the morning!
3 Strengthen feeble hands and knees;
fainting hearts, be cheerful!
God who comes for such as these,
seeks and saves the fearful.
Deaf ears hear the silent tongues
sing away their weeping;
blind eyes see the lifeless ones
walking, running, leaping!
4 There God's highway shall be seen
where no roaring lion,
nothing evil or unclean
walks the road to Zion:
ransomed people, homeward bound
all your praises voicing,
see your Lord with glory crowned,
share in his rejoicing! Topics: Advent; Healing; Reign of Christ; Salvation/Redemption Used With Tune: TEMPUS ADEST FLORIDUM

While foes are strong, and danger near
Author: Anon. Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 12 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 43:1-2 Lyrics: 1 While foes are strong, and danger near,
A voice falls gently on my ear;
My Saviour speaks, he says to me,
That as my days, my strength shall be.
2 With such a promise need I fear
For all that now I hold most dear?
No: I will never anxious be,
For, as my days, my strength shall be.
3 When storms of trouble on me fall,
And when my cup is mixed with gall,
This promise will be sweet to me,
That as my days, my strength shall be.
4 And when, at last, I'm called to die,
Still on this promise I'll rely;
Yes, Lord, I then will trust in thee,
That as my days, my strength shall be. Topics: Youth and Age; As thy Days, so shall thy Strength be
While foes are strong, and danger near
