When
troubles come, your soul to
tryYou love the friend who
just stands by.Perhaps there's
nothing she can do
The thing
is
strictly up to you.For there are
troubles all your own
And
paths the
soul must tread alone.Times when
love
can't smooth the road
Nor
friendship
lift the heavy load.But just to
feel
you have a friend
Who will
stand by
you until the end.Whose sympathy
through all endures
Whose warm
hand
clasp is always yours.It helps
somehow to pull you
through
Although
there's nothing she can do.And so
with fervent heart we
cry
Bless the
friend who just stands
by.![](https://www.angelfire.com/ca3/sereni
