[Intro]
C Em9 G D/F# Em  C D/F# Em
 
[Verse 1]
C                    Em9
Driftin' beneath the horizon
G       D/F#          Em
Body is weak, but I’m tryin'
              C                      D/F#
To make it to shore, but I'm fallin’ short
           Em
I need You more
 
C                          Em9
Wave after wave, I've been sinkin'
G            D/F#         Em
So unto Your promise, I'm clingin'
                 C                     D/F#
You say that I'm strong; to You, I bel-ong
             Em
Keep holdin' on
 
[Chorus 1]
Em         C      D/F#
You are my anchor

So     steady me, steady me now
Em         C      D/F#

You're keepin’ my feet on the ground
 
Em C                   D/F#
In angry oceans You’ve never broken
        G     D/F#        Em
Through every wave of the storm
Em         C      D/F#
You are my anchor

So steady me, steady me now

Come steady me, steady me now
 
[Verse 2]
C                   D/F#
When I get tired of fightin'
G          D/F#            Em
All of the fears I’ve been hidin'
                 C                     D/F#
You gave me Your breath and tell me to rest
You never [Em]left

I.can.I.can.I.can,hear.You callin'.me.by.name

             G                    D/F#
Never.be the same | I.can.face anything
          Em
So let it rain

I think some of the D/F# in the first line of each chorus should be D instead. Otherwise, I think this is much more correct than the other two tabs posted.
