Thank you for sharing in another video what you and your wife went through that brought you to write this song. I picture you holding your little baby boy in the palm of your hand. Thank God that you have Jesus

Beautiful!!! Thank you so much and GOD bless!!

Wow! I needed this more than you can imagine right now. What a magnificent song. My youngest son passed away in July of this year,2022. He was born December 23, 1984. ( Birthday tomorrow) We came home from the hospital on Christmas morning. I placed his carrier under the Christmas tree and put a beautiful blue bow on his head. His father passed away in 1993 (40 years old) of a sudden heart attack. My son...the same..37 years old. I knew he had the "markers". His older brother's didn't. "Thank the Lord". He was so smart, talented, college athlete. But most of all..caring, kind, giving, always helping others. He always said to me "I LOVE YOU. YOU HAVE ALWAYS AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE MY HERO." He told me that the night before he passed away as he left from visiting me. What a wonderful memory. My Mother passed away 28 years ago today. I now know I will listen to this song every single day. I would have played it at his funeral if I had only heard it before now. Beautiful, just BEAUTIFUL. God Bless you & MERRY Christmas..

I love his song and I'm glad I know the story behind it

My first time listening to this song wow what a touching song tears flow for 62 years old I love my kids and I always have faith in Jesus and I knew he has been by my side so many years thank you for this wonderful song got me back on the path I need to be on.

So Thankful I've "met" the man behind Ray Boltz's success in this world and the next..Thank You..

Lawrence my name is Jerry chewning I live in Panama city Florida I was really touched by your beautiful song thank you so much for sharing it I would really like to meet you some day keep singing for Jesus may god bless you and your family

Just when you think, I sure need a blessing. 15 years of the worst of storm. Our son passed at age 32. It was then, no storm was really hard at all. I felt such comforting love. All the hurt just seem to turn into joy for our son is now our treasure in heaven, where my heart is. This song truly is a blessing.

Yes I heard you

I first heard this song, I understood all to well. I knew it came from brokenness and deep sorrows. We each walk on the same road. Thank God I'm closer to the end of my road. As hard as life can be: I can't say I earned my way. Thank you Jesus for not giving up on us all, amen

I still love it.

Beautiful song l love Donnie Sumner's version of this song. Beautiful words

Thank you God.

AMEN!!🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

This song is very relevant especially at this time of global COVID-19 pandemic. The Anchor surely holds in spite of this storm!

Heard in church. Really a blessing Lawrence

Wow God bless you this song has being a blessing to my life

This brings tears to my eyes... lovely

I just love this song and beautiful story.. may you be blessed in your life Lawrence and completely filled with love & peace of God.. one day your Saviour will wrap His loving arms around you & wipe all your tears away & heal your broken heart! Amen

Thank you for sharing Lawrence! Great song and Awesome testimony!

The original writer of "The Anchor Holds" is Lawrence Chewning Ray Boltz only done rearranging of the song cutting it down from a long song, but if I not mistaken, this was all before Ray came out as gay. Even though that sad thing happened with Ray Boltz, God still uses the song to bless people. We arent singing the song and praises to ray boltz, we are singing to God. God can take something that is not necessarily good, but good can come from it. This song has blessed many people over the years. We all, at some point in our lives has messed up, sinned, or whatever, I think we can sing the song recognize the original writer and his purpose for writing the song without giving credit to the rearranger. We must pray for Ray not condemn him...2yrs ago I would not have said that, but after what I've been through and witnessed in the past year and a half, my out look is much different...I do not look the same way at others, that are out in sin or has backslidden as "there for the grace of God go I". So I say we enjoy the song without acknowledging the rearranger and only acknowledge the original writer and his reason for the song...the song is to God.

Just wanna say thank you budy for writing the song. You'll never know how this song has impacted my family. God bless brother.

Beautiful song, God bless yoy

Thank you Father for The Anchor (Jesus) who holds us all in our own storms, we all have them.

Amen, my brother...

A great song that touches my heart. I am 74 years old and have been through many storms....I have lost 3 husbands..the first to leukemia when I was 44, the second by massive heart attack, and finally the third just in 2014 after a major stroke.. I was brought up in church from a child and have known the Lord since I was 10 years old, but somehow, I got away from God when I lost 3 children by way of miscariage....I too sometimes have wondered what good could come from all of this, but you know.....I am sure God has the answers and hopefully will show me why in time to come. I have several medical problems as well and am now disabled....but you know???? I still believe He has a purpose for all of it...He is the great creator and has the master plan for all of us, so I keep holding on to the nail scarred hand and God has never let me fall too far....He is my anchor and will continue to be regardless of what storms I face......I totally understand how Lawrence and his wife felt going through all of their storms but Praise God, maybe the reason was so Lawrence would write this great song....God bless you Lawrence and I , for one, sure am glad you wrote it as it has helped me get through some of my storms....You are a blessing.

Wow ,as I sit here Christmas Day eating alone for the first time ever , this song touched my soul ! And tears flowed ,but southing to the spirit tears . So thank you ,thank God ,the anchor will always hold ,Amen . God bless .

WOW !Thank you.God bless

I love this song R.I.P. Michael Hunter

Anchor my life to you lord Jesus.

no disrespect for Ray Boltz awesome vocals on this, but this version carries a depth and sincerity and vulnerability that only the author could bring to it....thank you for sharing this tender version of your expression of faith.

This was my son's favorite song. We lost him when he was 21. We played this song as he passed on to Heaven. You'll never know what this song meant to him and us. Thank you

This is a very pretty song. This song has kept me hanging on to that anchor after my husband passed away two and a half years ago and then it kept me from falling a part when i lost my youngest son just the first of this year. God bless you for singing the song Lawrence

My heart goes out to this humble servant of God. I went through some traumatic things in my own life and I wondered where God was too. Yes, there is a dark night of the soul when nothing makes sense and we wonder where God is.

Amen the anchor holds. Jesus you never let go of me. There were times i felt like i was drowning but praise God you were always there holding and loving me. I love you Jesus so much. 💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝

Sori for all e typos. Btw i hail from singapore. Thats how far this song has reached. I am very well recovered from my stroke. Praise the Lord. But this song is still one of my favorites.

Wow its goid to hear how u wrote tt song. Its been such a blessing to me. 6 years ago i had a stroke. Lying in hosp. Cant read e bible. But this son that i learned when i was younger kept replaying in my head. It comforted me. I was 66 years old then. God BLESS u.
