    When my son died unexpectedly the lord put that song in my mind day and night for two months. Night and day it was there, I went to the Bible ,I looked for anchor and found it once in Hebrew s 6 19. There was my message.

      The anchor does hold indeed if only you can keep your faith firm in the finished work on the cross of cavalry, those many troubles of life will sure come barraging at you, but the ANCHOR (JESUS) will hold and sustain you to a victory.

    There's a huge difference between someone singing a song & someone singing a song that they've 'lived' in their life. Donnie Sumner has lived every word of this great hymn. I have watched the Sumner's since I was a little girl. Thank you, Donnie, for an amazing video. Love you & love seeing you on Gaither programs. Keep singing! Enjoy you so much. Not sure how anyone can watch this video & not be touched. God Bless!

    I have journeyed
    Through the long, dark night
    Out on the open sea
    By faith alone
    Sight unknown
    And yet His eyes were watching me
    The anchor holds
    Though the ship is battered
    The anchor holds
    Though the sails are torn
    I have fallen on my knees
    As I faced the raging seas
    The anchor holds
    In spite of the storm
    I've had visions
    I've had dreams
    I've even held them in my hand
    But I never knew
    They would slip right through
    Like they were only grains of sand
    The anchor holds
    Though the ship is battered
    The anchor holds
    Though the sails are torn
    I have fallen on my knees
    As I faced the raging seas
    The anchor holds
    In spite of the storm
    I have been young
    But I am older now
    And there has been beauty
    That these eyes have seen
    But it was in the night
    Through the storms of my life
    Oh, that's where God proved
    His love to me
    The anchor holds
    Though the ship is battered
    The anchor holds
    Though the sails are torn
    I have fallen on my knees
    As I faced the raging seas
    The anchor holds
    In spite of the storm
    I have fallen on my knees
    As I faced the raging seas
    The anchor holds
    In spite of the storm

    I've been listening to good gospel music all my life. This is the kind of music I was raised on. My mother couldn't read a stitch of music, but she could listen to a song like this for a couple of times and start playing it on the piano and be able to sing along with the soloist in the melody or the alto part with no problem at all. Her brother could play the guitar and he did it all by ear also. My mother developed althzeimers and later on in life didn't even know who I was. My brother, my son, and nephew would go to the nursing home and sing a few old gospel songs as the one and only Merle Haggard would say. I remember my mom would start making the motions as if she was playing the piano and would start harmonizing with us. These are memories that time and death cannot erase.

    The song The Anchor Holds has an edited version that was done in German. This is actually the original verse of The Anchor Holds. The song was written in 1986. I had given birth to a son whom Edward and I intended to name Henry Edward. He hadn't been christened yet. The night the palace was broken into and Prince Harry was kidnapped, our newborn son was also taken. Harry was found but our son wasn't. After we discovered our son had also been kidnapped we sat down and wrote The Anchor Holds in German. Our son never was found. The next day, Prince Phillip told me I had to leave the Castle. We were later told our son's body was found in the Thymes River just upstream from Cambridge. The agony of losing a precious child is extreme.

    Oh Lord... This made me cry... uncontrollably...I have a friend who means the world to me... I think about her life... and I think about mine... I know how her life has been... from the time she was a little girl... I don't ask for anyone to pray for me, but I do ask that you pray for Becky... All her life (59 years) she has known abuse and neglect from so many people... including her family... She was made to feel unworthy, unloved, unimportant, invisible, of no value... That has been such a heavy burden for her... I try to encourage and remind her that she is enough... enough... I've told her that my friendship is forever... That I would turn my back on her and break my promise to her... I've prayed with her and for her and reminded her that even if she had been the only one in the world... he would have died her... I have prayer circles, but no one ever has too many prayers offered up for them... So I ask you please... pray for Becky... that she can know peace in her soul and her life... and put all her trust in Jesus... her anchor... because in him all the bad things she has known... don't exist...
    Thank you to those who pray for her...

    One of my favourites sang by Donnie Sumner. The story behind this profound song, is heartbreaking. This song was written from a broken heart, but the Anchor holds. Is it not wonderful that the message of hope and assurance through this song is the same for yesterday, today and tomorrow. God's love has never failed us yet. The Anchor holds. Thank you Heavenly Father for your Anchor. We are sometimes battered and our sails are torn, but the Anchor holds.

    The anchor holds. Jesus slept through the storm on the sea, but his disciples let their fear get in front of their faith, begging Jesus to do something. Even today, Christ is in the storm and he says "this too shall pass, and you'll get through". You'll be okay, in the end. The anchor holds.
