My Friend

You are my friend and
I have no doubt
That God looked around to find
The right friend for me.

He sent you into my life
That I might share and love ~
The one that is much like me
Wherein we can do things together.

God doesn't make mistakes and
He didn't when He sent you to me.
I needed a friend that was sincere
And cared about me.

Unconditional friendship
Is so hard to find
That I was often lonely
And had no one to turn ...

To share my happiness
And my heartaches, too,
Until He decided
That I needed you.

Friends are so special
When they are Christ-centered.
Like you, I have learned
There are those you can trust.

So often, the ones in whom
We think we can confide
Are those that often hurt us more
Than we can comprehend.

Something is missing
In people like that.
Those are the ones I run from
As fast as I can.

You are my friend and
I am so thankful for you,
Someone to care that
I am lonely, sometimes ...

And need a phone call or note
To just get me through the day.
You are always there and how grateful I am
That God saw fit to send you my way!
