Triumphant Songs No.2 ‎#122

122. There’s Room for You

1 There’s room for you to anchor,
Within the port of rest,
Where tempests all are over,
And storms no more molest;
How sweet to weary voyagers,
This precious promise giv’n:
There’s room for you to anchor
Safe in heav’n.

Refrain:
There’s room, there’s room;
There’s room, there’s room,
There’s room for you to anchor
Safe in heav’n.

2 There’s room for you to anchor;
The ship is waiting now,—
The ship of God’s preparing,
Oh! ask not Why nor How.
His boundless love and mercy,
No tongues can ever tell;
If you but trust his promise,
All is well. [Refrain]

3 The same dear friends shall meet us
That we had loved below;
The same sweet voices greet us,
As in the long ago.
Then hush! ye murmuring waters,
Ye tempests, cease to blow!
I almost hear the music
Soft and low. [Refrain]

4 O heaving, swelling billows,
Bear onward to my home!
Beyond these dreary headlands
I see its shining dome.
There, there my fainting spirit,
No more for rest shall sigh;
‘Tis there I hope to anchor
By and by. [Refrain]
