His Matchless Love

by 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 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.
