POEMS OF GRATITUDE > Thank God for Friends - SONG

THANK GOD FOR FRIENDS
 
Verse 1
I was writing this song when my heart was broken,
I’d been shedding tears, and then you called.
In the few kind words that you have spoken,
You have stopped my tears, you changed my heart.
 
Ref.:  Oh, thank God for friends... 
 
Verse 2
You said, “Boys can break your heart.” Why don’t I know that?
“People change their mind, well, that’s just life.
But true friends will stay, I hope you know that--
I will always stand right by your side.”
 
Ref.: Oh, thank God for friends… 
 
Verse 3
Every time I’m down, I know I can call you,
Say whatever comes to my mind.
You will never push, only gently guide me--
Hey, what can I say? You’re the best kind.
 
Ref.: Oh, thank God for friends…

A friend is one that knows you as you are, understands where you have been, accepts who you have become, and still gently allows you to grow."
