Friends are a Godsend! Could we
ever declare their worth?
Tell me, Is there a greater blessing here on
Earth?
We could never do without 'em! Their fellowship
is beyond compare!
Oh, how much it means to us to know they really
care!
Yes, good friends are certainly a priceless
treasure!
They are often a source of joy beyond measure!
A true friend will stand by you when others walk
away,
For to them it doesn't matter what other folks
do or say!
A true friend will join with you when the battle
gets hot,
And even defend you to their own hurt, like as
not.
A friendship must be cultivated so it will grow!
If we are fond of someone we need to let it
show!
For if we want a friend we must be friendly too!
That's the advice God's Word gives to me and
you!
When we are sick it is comforting to know a
friend is there,
Who will call out our name to Our Heavenly
Father in prayer!
Oh, how heartwarming it is to answer the phone,
And hear the voice of an old friend when you're
all alone!
It is such a precious time when friends in one
accord,
Join together to praise and magnify the Lord!
True friends are hard to come by! I've only been
blessed with a few!
Some have "gone on before" to that Land Beyond
the Blue!
But, one day I shall see them and we'll know as
we are known,
When from these fleshly prison bars my weary
soul has flown!
In Heaven we will be reunited with our dear
departed friends,
In a grand and glorious homecoming that never,
ever ends!
