CSS text-align does not work

I tried to use the text-align in CSS but it does not work. here is the CSS and I also had all the body set to center, does that have to do with something? Here is my CSS:

#Swell {
 text-align: left;
}

Here is my HTML:

<a id="Swell" href="https://www.swell.com">Use Swell Bottles<img src="https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/f9/93/95/f99395b48463ee8d3bfa16f32df51c98.jpg" height="50"></a>

Also my CSS body text-align:

body {
font-family: sans-serif;
text-align: center; 
background-color: rgb(128, 212, 255);
}

Dose the text-align: center have to do with the error and if that is true then how do I overwrite/fix this error
