CONFIDE IN A FRIEND
When you’re tired and worn at the close of day
And things just don’t seem to be going your way,
When even your patience has come to an end,
Try taking time out and confide in a friend.
Perhaps he too may have walked the same road
With a much troubled heart and a burdensome load,
To find peace and comfort somewhere near the end,
When he stopped long enough to confide in a friend.
For then are most welcome a few words of cheer,
For someone who willingly lends you an ear.
No troubles exist that time cannot mend,
But to get quick relief, just confide in a friend.

To My Friend
I have never been rich before,
But you have poured
Into my heart’s high door
A golden hoard.
My wealth is the vision shared,
The sympathy,
The feast of the soul prepared
By you for me.
Together we wander through
The wooded ways.
Old beauties are green and new
Seen through your gaze.
I look for no greater prize
Than your soft voice.
The steadiness of your eyes
Is my heart’s choice.
I have never been rich before,
But I divine
Your step on my sunlit floor
And wealth is mine!

THERE IS ALWAYS A PLACE FOR YOU
There is always a place for you at my table,
You never need to be invited.
I’ll share every crust as long as I’m able,
And know you will be delighted.
There is always a place for you by my fire,
And though it may burn to embers,
If warmth and good cheer are your desire
The friend of your heart remembers!
There is always a place for you by my side,
And should the years tear us apart,
I will face lonely moments more satisified
With a place for you in my heart!
--Anne Campbell--
GOD BLESS YOU
I seek in prayerful words, dear friend,
My heart’s true wish to send you,
That you may know that, far or near,
My loving thoughts attend you.
I cannot find a truer word,
Nor better to address you;
Nor song, nor poem have I heard
Is sweeter than God bless you!
God bless you! So I’ve wished you all
Of brightness life possesses;
For can there any joy at all
Be yours unless God blesses?
God bless you! So I breathe a charm
Lest grief’s dark night oppress you,
For how can sorrow bring you harm
If ‘tis God’s way to bless you?
And so “through all thy days
May shadows touch thee never--”
But this alone--God bless thee
Then art thou safe forever.
