GOD’S LOVE IS A HAVEN IN THE STORMS OF LIFE – Helen Steiner Rice

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 a fortress,

and we seek protection there

When the waves of tribulation

seem to drown us in despair.

God’s love is like a sanctuary

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 tower rising far above the crowd,

And God’s smile is like the sunshine

breaking through the threatening cloud.

God’s love is like a beacon

burning bright with faith and prayer,

And through all the changing scenes of life

we can find a haven there.
