GOD'S LOVE is like an island
In life's ocean vast and wide--
A peaceful, quiet shelter
From the restless, rising tide...
GOD'S LOVE is like an anchor
When the angry billows roll--
A mooring in the storms of life,
A stronghold for the soul...
GOD'S LOVE is like a fortress
And we seek protection there
When the waves of tribulation
Seem to drown us in despair...
GOD'S LOVE is like a harbor
Where our souls can find sweet rest
From the struggle and the tension
Of life's fast and futile quest...
GOD'S LOVE is like a beacon
Burning bright with FAITH and PRAYER
And through the changing scenes of life
We can find a HAVEN THERE!
