A mother's love is like an island
In life's ocean vast and wide,
A peaceful,quiet and shelter
From the restless,rising tide.
A mother's love is like a fortress
And we seek protection there
When the waves of tribulation
Seem to drown us in despair.
A mother's love is a sanctuary
Where our soul can fnd sweet rest
From the struggle and the tension
Of life's fast and futile quest.
A mother's love like a tower
Rising far above the crowd,
And her smile is like the sunshine
Breaking through a threatening cloud.
A mother's love is like a beacon
Burning bright with faith and prayer
And through the changing scences of life
We can find a haven there....
For a mother's love is fashioned
After god's enduring love,
It is endless and unfailing
Like the love of him above.
