That cannot be bought or sold.
But it's value is far greater,
Than a mountain 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,
Not diamonds, pearls or riches,
BUT THE LOVE
OF REAL TRUE FRIENDS.
