My soul in sad exile was out on life's sea
So burdened with sin and distressed
Till I heard a sweet voice saying, "Make Me your choice,"
And I entered the haven of rest
I've anchored my soul in the haven of rest
I'll sail the wide seas no more
The tempest may sweep o'er the wild stormy deep
But in Jesus I'm safe evermore
I yielded myself to His tender embrace
And faith taking hold of the word
My fetters fell off, and I anchored my soul
The haven of rest is my Lord
I've anchored my soul in the haven of rest
I'll sail the wide seas no more
The tempest may sweep o'er the wild stormy deep
But in Jesus I'm safe evermore
Oh, come to the Savior, He patiently waits
To save by His power divine
Come, anchor your soul in the haven of rest
And say, "My Beloved is mine."
I've anchored my soul in the haven of rest
I'll sail the wide seas no more
The tempest may sweep o'er the wild stormy deep
But in Jesus I am safe evermore
The tempest may sweep o'er the wild stormy deep
But in Jesus I am safe evermore
In Jesus I am safe evermore
