My Anchor Holds
Author: William C. Martin Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 123 hymnals First Line: Though the angry surges roll Refrain First Line: And it holds, my anchor holds Lyrics: 1 Though the angry surges roll
on my tempest-driven soul,
I am peaceful, for I know,
wildly though the winds may blow,
I've an anchor safe and sure,
that can evermore endure.
Refrain:
And it holds, my anchor holds;
blow your wildest then, O gale,
on my bark so small and frail:
by his grace I shall not fail,
for my anchor holds, my anchor holds.
2 Mighty tides about me sweep,
perils lurk within the deep,
angry clouds o'ershade the sky,
and the tempest rises high;
still I stand the tempest's shock,
for my anchor grips the Rock. [Refrain]
3 I can feel the anchor fast
as I meet each sudden blast,
and the cable, though unseen,
bears the heavy strain between;
through the storm I safely ride,
till the turning of the tide. [Refrain]
4 Troubles almost 'whelm the soul;
griefs like billows o'er me roll;
tempters seek to lure astray,
storms obscure the light of day:
but in Christ I can be bold,
I've an anchor that shall hold. [Refrain]

Come, thou Holy Spirit bright
Loving Shepherd, kind and true
Author: Angelus; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics:
Loving Shepherd, kind and true,
Wilt Thou not in pity come
To Thy Lamb? As shepherds do,
Bear me in Thy bosom home;
Take me hence from earth's annoy
To Thy home of endless joy.
See how I have gone astray
In this earthly wilderness;
Come and take me soon away
To Thy flock who dwell in bliss,
And Thy glory, Lord, behold,
Safe within Thy heavenly fold.
For I fain would gaze on Thee,
With the lambs to whom 'tis given
That they feed, from danger free,
In the happy fields of heaven;
Praising Thee, all terrors o'er,
Never can they wander more.
Here I live in sore distress,
Fearing, watching, hour by hour;
For my foes around me press,
And I know their craft and power:
Lord, Thy lamb can never be
Safe one moment, but with Thee.
O Lord Jesus, let me not
'Mid the ravening wolves e'er fall,
Help me as a shepherd ought,
That I may escape them all:
Bear me homeward in Thy breast,
To Thy fold of endless rest.
Loving Shepherd, kind and true

Jesus Christ, who stands between
Author: C. Wesley Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 12 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus Christ, who stands between
Angry heaven and guilty men,
Undertakes to buy our peace;
Gives the covenant of grace;
Ratifies and makes it good;
Signs and seals it with his blood.
2 Life his healing blood imparts,
Sprinkled in our peaceful hearts;
Abel's blood for vengeance cried,
Jesus speaks us justified;
Speaks and calls for better things;
Makes us prophets, priests, and kings. Topics: The Christian System Justification By Faith; The Covenant of Grace Signed and Sealed

Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 131 hymnals Lyrics:
1.
Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
One in Three and Three in One,
As by the celestial host,
Let thy will on earth be done;
Praise by all to thee be given,
Gracious Lord of earth and heaven.
2.
Vilest of the sinful race,
Lo! I answer to thy call;
Meanest vessel of thy grace,
Grace divinely free for all;
Lo! I come to do thy will,
All thy counsel to fulfil.
3.
If so poor a worm as I
My to thy great glory live,
All my actions sanctify,
All my words and thoughts receive;
Claim me for thy service, claim
All I have, and all I am.
4.
Take my soul and body's powers;
Take my memory, mind and will;
All my goods, and all my hours;
All I know, and all I feel;
All I think, or speak, or do;
Take my heart, but make it new.
5.
Now, O my God, thine own I am;
Now I give thee back thine own;
Freedom, friends and health and fame,
Consecrate to thee alone:
Thine I live, thrice happy I!
Happier still if thine I die.
6.
Father, Son and Holy Ghost,
One in Three and Three in One,
As by the celestial host,
Let thy will on earth be done;
Praise by all to thee be given,
Glorious Lord of earth and heaven.
