A Cherished Friend
God knew there would be times
that one could do with a word of cheer
A friend to comfort and cheer
someone to hug and encourage
He knew we'd need to share
The joy of 'little things'
To be able to appreciate
the joy that life brings
I think he knew our troubled heart
would sometimes trob with pain
At temptations and misfortunes
Or some goals we cannot attain
He knew we'd need the comfort
of an understanding heart
To give us strenght and courage
to make a fresh new start
He knew we'd need friendship
Unselfish, enduring and true
and so God answered the heart's great need
with a cherished friend like you
