Ray Boltz - Gospel Of Grace Lyrics






They say in the harbor of heaven
Is a ship called the Gospel of Grace
A glorious ship, that once made a trip
Through the oceans of time and space
She followed a star to a stable
She carried the Child of the King
And when she set sail
So goes the tale
All of the angels would sing

The Gospel of Grace is sailing
What a glorious sight to behold
Her heavenly banners are waving
Her sails are covered with gold
They say when a man looks upon her
The glory will shine on his face
For there'll never be
A ship on the sea
Like the glorious Gospel of Grace

She sailed to the land of the lonely
To the meek and the lowly she came
And each one she passed
From the first to the last
Would never again be the same
The voice of the Father had spoken
A heavenly sign had come down
And everyone knew
His promise was true
The heavens were filled with the sound

Then one day she sank to the bottom
At a place called old rugged cross
But the Child of the King
Now her captain
Came sailing her back to the top
And then as they sailed
Off toward heaven
He called out, Get ready my friends
I must go away, but there'll come a day
I promise you'll see Me again

And the Gospel of Grace will be sailing
What a glorious sight we'll behold
Her heavenly banners a waving
She's coming to carry us home
For now we see through a glass darkly
But then we will see face to face
And as we climb aboard
We'll give thanks to the Lord
For His glorious Gospel of Grace
And as we climb aboard
We'll give thanks to the Lord
For His glorious Gospel of Grace

    This is my favorite ray boltz song. Incredibly emotional and spiritual. What lyrics and what a voice!

  21. T.... ....

    I've loved this song from the moment I saw this video on TBN  when the album was released. Ray's personal life is of no consequence to me. I love Mr.Boltz for sharing this message with me then when I was at a low point in life&unsure what to do. This song reminded me then whatever life had in store for me,good or bad,GOD would forever hold&keep me. Now that storms have come again&as fear sets in I'm again reminded The Anchor Holds!
    Bless you for posting this&bless Ray Boltz for sharing his gifts with us all!

  22. P.... H....

    The 80's and 90's had such great contemporary songs. Ray is right up there.  I wish he would make a new album.  His voice gives me chills.  Also allows me to be still and listen to that still small voice of God.  He hath done great things. Love ya Ray.  Keep on shining!

  23. C.... H....

    This is one of my favorite Christian song.  It is important for us Christians to have an anchor which holds in Jesus name.  Thank you, Blessed Father!  Amen!  Let the anchor hold in spite of the storm.  All praises to you, oh Lord!  Amen and Hallelujah! 

  24. C.... A....

    May God bless you Ray! Beautiful!

  25. J.... S....

    ive always loved his music. btw dmbarry777 i didnt know about that till i looked it up and i cant judge the only one whom can judge is god. no matter what i love the music and still listen to it to this day.....God bless everyone 

  26. L.... U....

    One of my favorite songs.  I've sung it several times in my church.  It has so much more meaning for me now.  We forget our fellow believers have lives where pain raises it's ugly head.  I'm so thankful for Ray's transparency in the pain he must have endured for so many years.  My prayer is that we as the church begin to embrace that pain in each other, praying and not condemning each other.  You, Carol and the family have my prayers and love, Ray....your friend and advocate, Stan

  33. W.... M....

    I had been bedridden with a very serious illness for many years when I first heard this song and it was so special. It spoke to me in such a deep way as I knew too that the anchor had held all those years for me. I am now able to walk again and am no  longer bed bound but this song still is so special. Thank you Ray Boltz I'm sure you have been a blessing through this song to many.

I can truly say that God has used this song and several others performed by Ray Boltz to minister to a part of my heart that was hurting! Thank God for music and it's profound gift to usher in the presence of God! In spite of our circumstances God is still on the throne and his ear is still listening to the cries of his children! Amen and Amen! I am so glad that HIS anchor will hold from now to eternity...

  47. F.... K....

    great song loveley to hear it

  48. L.... A....

    We are all God's children and we all have so many storms in our lives. I love Ray Boltz, All you work is very uplifting and encouraging, God knows we all or at least I need people like you in my life.

  49. c.... ....

    Great song!

  50. D.... B....

    Desperately plying the waves. No solutions. Self-help proving ridiculous. Now the Master leaves His shore; defies the commotion; comes up close by way of those waters and provides the only possible rescue. Indeed the only possible anchor of security anywhere. Thank you Jesus.

  51. d.... ....

    This is a great song to dscribe God's unfailing love for all

  52. t.... d....

    One of my favorite songs

  53. M.... M....

    I have always loved tgis song,This live performance was simply a,mazing: I love it when an artist is acccompanied by a full orchestra...it magnifies their message that much more....and I know it is both pleasing and sweet to His ears.

  54. i.... s....

    Judge not lest ye be judged, pray our brothers and sisters who are struggling in life, we need not condemn we need to be that good Samaritan helping our brothers and sisters in time of struggle. Reaching down with our hand stretched lifting them out of the ditch, instead of beating them down with their past that has been forgiven covered under the blood. God teaches that when He forgives our past sins he remembers them no more, as far as the east is from the west cast into the depths of the Ocean never to be remembered by him. (Irvin, S.V. 11/11/2013) 

  55. a.... t....

    awesome

  56. S.... ....

    Jesus has helped me through storms. The worst of any was when He saved my son from leukemia. Thank you Jesus!!

  57. M.... G....

    I still love Rays songs and singing. Please continue to sing. So blessed with so much talent.

  58. T.... B....

    I love the music and there is only one judge

  59. M.... C....

    Love this Song!!! God's word is the Anchor of the soul. Christians who aren't
    reading and studying their Bibles cannot be anchored in the faith

  60. T.... F....

    The only way to face raging seas.....

  61. E.... R....

    This song came into my spirit this morning and i had to find it. Such a blessing when u can turn to God for answers in ur situations, he will give u a song, a word from the bible, that's why he send his blessed holy spirit to comfort us. God is good he cares about us, all we got to do is trust him. So even though the storms are raging, the anchor holds in Jesus christ. Beautiful song. Keep looking to Jesus he will never let us down. Thank u Jesus for inspiring ur servants to pour into our soul.

  62. J.... D....

    Beautiful and very true.

  63. R.... L....

    This song as always inspired me since the first time I heard it, because it is so true our Lord is always steadfast and with us to help us through the storms of life. This also reminds me of "The Lighthouse" another inspirational song I love. Thank you for sharing this, the words speak by themselves but Ray does a beautiful job with it as I am sure he has faced many storms in his tormented life.

  64. B.... S....

    Such a beautiful song with so much truth as to how the Lord can be a source of strength in our lifes when we are facing the inevitable storms of life. We all are work in progress, there is no sinless perfection this side of glory. But this song tells us that whatever storms we face, no matter how severe, as long as Christ is in our lifes, THE ANCHOR HOLDS, and we will come through. Pray for Ray.

  65. S.... H....

    My precious cousin passed away unexpectedly last week. Her son asked that this song be played at her home going celebration. The words are a great comfort.

  66. 5.... ....

    You have been used by the Lord thru your anointed music. I hope that one day, when we pass each other in heaven, that I can simply say, THANK YOU...

    Amen. God uses each of us in ways that will touch others. We are all just His vessels to spread His love to others. I am thankful that we have technology that allows us to listen and watch these great videos that touch our hearts so much.

  70. s.... ....

    I'm an atheist, so you all mostly sound insane to me, but I have to say this is a pro bass line. Love it.

  71. S.... M....

    Anointed song!

  72. s.... p....

    Love this!

  73. S.... M....

    Great message, great talent. We thank you Lord for you give such great talents to help your people in all circumstances of life. The raging sea; we face it daily, at our places of work, in our homes and every where, but, when we fall on our knees, there is one Mighty and creator all who is able to still the raging sea for our good. Romans 6: 19 We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain.

  74. D.... T....

    Thank you Jesus for those who fear you and pray for their enemies.

  75. k.... h....

    This has been a blessing for me as it helped me to stand firm when the devil wants to make me a shipwreck. God bless you Ray

  76. W.... B....

    This song is helping me through the most difficult time in my life thus far. My mother went to be with the Lord less than a week ago and this song reminds me to let God be my anchor.

  77. A.... N....

    Bro Ray, God has used u to bless the world...i listen to this song in my down moments, that always reminds me that God sees us not as the world looks at us, im blessed, blessed blessed to be able to access this music. I hope i meet u in heaven to sing for you "thank u for giving to the lord" because many times Ive been at the point of giving up...and i always find myself getting the strength to wait another day. Thank you ray n God bless you.

  78. E.... C....

    The Holy Spirit led me to play this song after a period of facing storms of life especially after loosing a loved one. I shed tears and loved the Lord more, knowing he is the one by me in the midst of the storm.

  79. P.... H....

    beautiful voice pray for him

  80. K.... S....

    I saw this wonderful artist 3 times in concert in Indiana...he was double dipped in the Spirit as each time I hear this song I get goose bumps.

  82. M.... K....

    Addresses what I am feeling at the precise moment. So grateful for it here right now. Thank you.

  83. J.... B....

    It is an amazing song written by Lawrence Chewning thru the loss of his unborn son, when his wife miscarried. It was a very touching testimony. No one can sing it like Ray. His voice really carries the song and drives it home.

  84. U.... B....
