"FRIENDS"

For gold is cold and lifeless,
it can neither see nor hear,
and in a time of trouble,
it is powerless to cheer.

It has no ears to listen,
no heart to understand,
It cannot 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.
