To be a friend
is not a easy task.
You must be willing to
give all that is ask.
You must be able to see
with eyes of compassion.
Be able to be there
through any situation.
You must have ears that
can hear words unspoken.
Be able to mend a heart
that's been broken.
You must have a heart
that is full of love.
Be able to ask guidance
from God above.
You must be able to listen
when your friend wants to talk.
Be willing to use the energy
when they just need to walk.
When they just need you to
kneel and pray with them.
You need to be able to let
the Holy Spirit speak to Him.
You can't walk in front
or behind your friend.
You must walk side by
side to be a real friend.
To be a friend who
is real and true.
Takes giving all
that's best in you
To be a friend who
is loving and giving.
Humbles us to a life
that's worth living.
I have a friend who
can do all this.
Let me introduce you
to my friend Jesus.
