Anchor Me

Anchor my heart To yours Don’t let me drift away The current is strong It’s pulling me Hold me fast Anchor me Anchor my heart To unmovable rock Anchor my soul to yours The winds may clutch The waves batter But tranquility comes With your touch Anchor my heart Anchor me In arms secure and true Though buffeted I rest in a haven I’m safe anchored to you Anchor my heart To the deepest part Of your being In your precious heart Anchor me For I'm sure to be Held strong, held fast So, hear my plea Till time should last Please… Anchor me.

Simplicity makes for the perfect romantic write; I live by that! Though this speaks of wind and wild waves, it still manages to transmit a sense of calm and reliance. In this case, repetition is a primary useful tool. // paul

Amen, if you are anchored to the Rock no storm can harm you. He indeed will hear your plea and will never forsake you.

Thank you, Richard. Though what you have written is true...this was not a spiritual write. It is a plea of love...physical and real. I appreciate the visit and post. Hope all is well.
