The Glad Refrain for the Sunday School ‎#146

146. The Anchored Soul

1 I’m resting so sweetly in Jesus now!
I sail the wide seas no more;
The tempests may sweet o’er the wild stormy deep—
I am safe where the storms come no more.

Refrain:
I have anchored my soul in the haven of rest,
I sail the wild seas no more, no more;
The tempests may sweep o’er the wild, stormy deep,
But in Jesus I’m safe evermore, evermore,
But in Jesus I’m safe evermore.

2 O long on the ocean my bark was toss’d,
Where tempests and storms ne’er cease;
My heart was in fear, and no refuge was near,
Till in Jesus my soul found her peace. [Refrain]

3 How sweet in a haven of rest to hide!
No billows of doubt or fear,—
The oceans may roll, but there’s rest for the soul
When the voice of my Saviour is near. [Refrain]
