"My Friend So Young"

C.J. Ingerson
2/5/99

Verse 1
********

When you sleep at night
and you are within your bed
and the bed bugs don't bite;
we are always there instead?

Verse 2
********

The same as when in life
we have things to learn
to grow a little now from strife
and you are our biggest concern.

Verse 3
********

You've had an interesting time
to learn to know others too
for now you've steps to climb
while still a child it's true.

Verse 4
********

Mothers and Fathers are always
going to be close to you forever
even when they seem faraways
they in their prayers forget you never.

Verse 5
********

Isn't it the same for them with you?
When you with your friends do play,
or you're just away to go to school?
Don't they to wish for you to stay?

Verse 6
********

But you've growth to wonder and see
you've a young girl to grow from
to a young lady to someday be
and that is hard for you and some.

Verse 7
********

Would we have ever met today
had it not been Father's will?
Don't let worry in your mind stay
remember we all love you still.

Verse 8
********

My child I wish it could be easy
the pain and worry just go away
but it won't be so lets get busy
with activities for now and everyday.

Verse 9
********

Heavenly Father loved you so much.
He had still to let you come here.
To let your parents your life touch.
But you are always in His heart near.

Verse 10
********

So what is this you mope about now
letting your school grades drop
is this the happy friend somehow
with a green unicorn to ride a lot?

Verse 11
********

Didn't we with aliens get to play
and in tropical forest find a lion
so lets put on a smile without delay
acting like a daughter of Fathers in Zion.

Verse 12
********

This is from an old uncle like Buck
known to some as the Old Rusty Knight.
As you've brought me happiness and luck;
I hope this once again makes you smile bright.
