Anchor to the Light

Anchor to the Light

To whom do you anchor your soul so tight?

With steadfast faith in Christ, the firmest hold,

Each humble work a witness, bright and bold,

That all good deeds may glorify His light.

Our weakness shown, a grace to keep us low,

For strength will bloom where meekness first was sown;

Through Christ’s own power, no battle faced alone,

Faith moves our hearts to paths where courage grows.

In charity, the purest love we find,

To serve and lift our neighbor, friend, or foe—

A gift from God to seek, to live, to show,

A guiding light through actions intertwined.

So anchor deep, let love and hope abound,

For faith through Christ can raise from low to sound.

To whom do you anchor your soul?

Sure and steadfast to Christ as a whole.

Abounding in good works isn't odd.

You'll be led to glorify God.

Our weakness will be shown to us

That we humble us with no fuss.

For with Faith in Christ, we can do

the great things and become strong too.
