Love Will Be Our Anchor

Gary Chapman


We said I love you with initials and an arrow 
Hearts were carved, our lips touched 
And the love we chose was on the straight and narrow 
And love will be our anchor 

We know the days will bring us things we're not prepared for 
Night will fall, love will call 
And every morning we will wake up feeling cared for 
And love will be our anchor 

Life's not easy 
And it helps if you are lucky 
Rain will fall on the good and the bad 
I will give you everything that I am able 
And love will be our anchor 

And when you can't believe the answers 
To the simplest of questions 
And your heart has grown cold 
Love is still the rock of ages 
And the rock will not be shaken 
It's an anchor to hold 
And when the waves have tossed our lives in reckless motion 
Wind has blown, we have grown 
We will make it all the way across this ocean 
And love will be our anchor 

Life's not easy 
And it helps if you are lucky 
Rain will fall on the good and the bad 
I will give you everything that I am able 
And love will be our anchor 
And when you can't believe the answers 
To the simplest of questions 
And your heart has grown cold 
Love is still the rock of ages 
And the rock will not be shaken 
It's an anchor to hold 

We said I love you with initials and an arrow 
Hearts were carved and our lips touched 
And the love we chose was on the straight and narrow 
And love will be our anchor 
This love will be our anchor.
