What A Friend!                                                             Each morn when I arise
             His presence ever near                                                     My friend who is so close to me;                                             To me,He is so dear.                                                                                                                                                     He listens when I'm happy                                                       And sees me when I'm sad                                              Always there to comfort me;                                                     Best friend I ever had.                                                                                                                                                  Sometimes I get complaining;                                                   The valleys seem so deep                                               But yet,He understands me;                                                     Awake or in deep sleep.                                                                                                                                              He helps me make decisions;                                                   Teaches me right from wrong.                                         Even when I'm in the valley deep;                                            He fills my heart with song!                                                                                                                                          As I look around this world of ours                                            And see how bad things are                                           A prayer of thanks goes up to Him;                                           He's my bright and morning star.                                                                                                                                 We all can have a friend like this                                              Who can turn your skies to blue;                                     I know this dear friend loves me so                                           And I know He loves you,too.                                                                                                                                     My dearest friend is JESUS                                                        Who guides me with His hand                                       No other friend will you ever find                                                On water or on land.                                                                                                                                                  To me He's been my SAVIOR;                                                   Saved from sin and self;                                                 Just look into His Word some day                                              And get your BIBLE off the shelf.                                                                                                                                It may not seem important now                                                  With so many things to do                                               But trust me when I tell you this.......                                           He'll be your best friend,too!

Reason for writing:

    My being a Senior citizen and living alone,I was feeling sorry for myself and then I realized what a good friend I had and His name is JESUS!
