    Behind The Song: Skillet Shares The Heart Behind Their Brand New Single “Anchor”

    By Abby Carpenter | Christian News | 0 comment | 25 June, 2019 | 5

    This week’s featured song story comes to us from Skillet. We’re excited to share with you the story behind their brand new single “Anchor.”

    “I meet a lot of fans and parents who say, ‘This world is changing so quickly and is getting confusing and I don’t know how to find God in my day to day life; I don’t know how to trust God in my day to day life.’As the parent of two teenage kids, I know how crazy the world is getting and it is so easy to be thrown to and fro on all these waves of doubt and looking for hope and truth in the midst of that. In our world, everything is going to be changing except for Jesus. Jesus is faithful and Jesus is true, the bible says. I hope this song is an encouragement to people who are looking for hope. Jesus said, ‘I am the way, I am the truth, I am the life,’so he will anchor you in these times of doubt. He will never leave you or forsake you and he will always be faithful for you. He is our Anchor.” – John Cooper (Skillet)

    “Anchor” Lyrics

    Drifting beneath the horizon
    Body’s weak but I’m trying
    To make it to shore
    But I’m falling short
    I need you more

    Wave after wave I’ve been sinking
    So unto your promise I’m clinging
    You say that I’m strong
    To you I belong
    Keep holding on

    You are my anchor
    So steady me, steady me now
    You are my anchor
    You’re keeping my feet on the ground
    In angry oceans you’ve never broken
    Through every wave of the storm
    You are my anchor
    So steady me , steady me now
    Come steady me, steady me now

    When I get tired of fighting
    All of the fears I’ve been hiding
    You gave me your breath
    And tell me to rest
    You never left

    I can hear you
    Calling me by name
    Pulling me out from under my shame
    Never be the same
    I can face anything
    So let it rain

    Don’t let go
    I don’t want to do this alone
    Don’t let go
    I know that I’d drown on my own
