Friendship is a Golden Chain, The links are friends so dear, And like a rare and precious jewel It's treasured more each year...
It's clasped together firmly With a love that's deep and true, And it's rich with happy memories and fond recollections, too...
Time can't destroy its beauty For, as long as memory lives, Years can't erase the pleasure That the joy of friendship gives...
For friendship is a priceless gift That can't be bought or sold, But to have an understanding friend Is worth far more than gold...
And the Golden Chain of Friendship Is a strong and blessed tie Binding kindred hearts together As the years go passing by. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ One day when God felt generous, He looked down at me and smiled, "Since I feel so magnanimous, I'd like to give you something, child."
He asked me what I wanted, I said, "Oh, really nothing more, You've done so much already." He said, "That's what God is for."
"You have been pretty good," He said, I know there's not much that you seek, I will pick a little something, Just to make your life complete."
With great anticipation, I looked forward to my gift, I wondered what God had in mind, That would give me such a lift.
"This gift," God said, "You realize, Bears some responsibility, So, if you accept my present, You must be willing to agree...
"To offer unconditionally, A section or a part, Of more than half of you, The larger portion of your heart."
"Okay, God," I answered, "Since in You, I always trust, I'll meet your obligation, In the manner that I must."
To myself, I thought, wow, what a gift, For so much of me, God's asked, Now what could be so valuable, That my share was more than half?
With both hands I sought my gift, I still did not have a clue, Then God put your hand in mine, And said His gift to me was YOU!
THANK YOU FOR BEING A GREAT FRIEND AND APART OF MY LIFE!!
HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
