They came and never left your side
They remained regardless of the tide
Through thick and thin they were there
Your joys and sorrows they shared.
They were friends in need and indeed
When you were weak they sowed good seeds
They told you the truth in love
You know they were sent from above.
Such friends need to be cherished
Such pals need to be nourished
They are a gift from the Lord
They are surely a great reward.
