Friendship's Smile


Lord, thank You for loyal, loving friends
Who are there in Winter or springtime fair
New acquaintances are easy to come by,
But true friendship is extremely rare.

A friend always sees the best in you,
Although they've known you at your worst.
They laugh with you in the good times;
When storms threaten, they'll be there first.

They'll offer a shoulder to rest your head
When tears are welling in your eyes,
Take a walk down friendship's path with you
And help chase away those stormy skies.

Lord, thank You for all the gifts You give;
Each one makes our life seem more worthwhile.
But one of the finest gifts you've given us
Is the warmth of friendship's loving smile.

~ Barbara Cagle Ray

A faithful friend is beyond price,
no sum can balance his worth.
Sirach 6:15
