Real True Friends
Friendship is a priceless gift
That cannot be bought or sold,
But its value is far greater
Than a mountain made of gold.
For gold is cold & lifeless.
It can neither see nor hear
& in the time of trouble
It is powerless to cheer--
It has no ears to listen
Nor a heart to understand.
It can't bring you comfort
Or reach out a helping hand.
So when you ask
God for a gift
Be thankful if he sends
Not diamonds, pearls or riches
But the love of real true friends.
