The Gift Of FriendshipThat cannot be bought or sold, But its value is far greater Than a mountain made of gold - For gold is cold and lifeless, It can neither see nor hear, And in the 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 Nor diamonds, pearls or riches, But the love of real true friends.
