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!
