Mother’s Love

Her love is likean island in life's ocean,vast and wideA peaceful, quiet shelterFrom the wind, the rain, the tide.'Tis bound on the north by Hope,

By Patience on the West,By tender Counsel on the SouthAnd on the East by Rest.Above it like a beacon lightShine Faith, and Truth, and Prayer;And thro' the changing scenes of lifeI find a haven there.

“God make the door of this house we have raised to Thee wide enough to receive all who need human love, fellowship and the Father’s care and narrow enough to shut out envy, pride and hate.

Make its threshold smooth that it may be no stumbling block to childhood, weakness or straying feet, but rugged and strong enough to turn back the tempter’s power.

God, make the door of this house the gateway to Thy Eternal Kingdom.”
