Thank God for you good friend of mine
Seldom is friendship such as thine
How very much I wish to be
As helpful as you’ve been to me.

When I recall from time to time
How you inspired this heart of mine,
I find myself inclined to pray,
God bless my friend this very day.

So often at the throne of grace,
There comes a picture of your face.
And, then, instinctively, I pray
That God may guide you all the way.

Some day, I hope with you to stand
Before the throne, at God’s right hand
And say to you at journey’s end:
Praise God, you’ve been to me a friend!

I’m walking with angels
Blessed each and everyday,
They guide me when I’m lost
Helping me find an easier way.

Gently they dry my eyes
The times that tears do fall,
Opening those doors of hope
When my back’s against a wall.

So many fail to see them
Because there are no wings,
But I know that they’re there
From the happiness they bring.

In those times of trouble
Look to the ones He sends,
You’ll surely see your angels
And recognize them as friends.

For You, My Friend, My Angel.

Friends ’til the end,
That’s what we always said,
Even when all hopes were dead.

Friends ’til the end,
We will always be,
Nothing can ever come
between you and me.

Friends ’til the end,
Even when nothing will bend,
Our friendship we will always mend.

Friends ’til the end,
There’s nothing we can’t overcome,
I know you’ll be there when
I need someone.

Friends ’til the end,
We will never part,
As long as we have each
other in our hearts.

I will walk with you and hold your hand
When you have a bad day I will understand
When the storms come as they often do
Like the sun that always comes shining through
I promise I will be right along side you.

Like a rainbow that shines through the summer rain
My love will surround you when you feel pain
I promise I will never ever go away
In your life I shall always want to stay
In your yesterdays, tomorrows, and all your todays.

You are friendly, kind and caring
Sensitive, loyal and understanding
Humorous, fun, secure and true
Always there… yes that’s you.

Special, accepting, exciting and wise
Truthful, and helpful, with honest
beautiful eyes
Confiding, forgiving, cheerful and bright
Yes that’s you… not one bit of spite.

You’re one of a kind, different from others
Generous, charming, but not one that smothers
optimistic, thoughtful, happy and game
But not just another… in the long chain.

Appreciative, warm and precious like gold
Our friendship won’t tarnish or ever grow old
You’ll always be there, I know that is true
I’ll always be here…. always for you.

Just like a rose
So precious and rare
Is the forever friendship
The two of us share.

Planted with kindness
It’s warmed by the sun
Of caring and sharing
Laughter and fun.

It’s grounded in trust
And nurtured in love
With a sprinkling of grace
From God up above.

Tears of sadness and joy
Like dew
Renew this friendship
I share with you.

And in the heart’s garden
We find the room
To be ourselves
To grow and to bloom.

A blessing of beauty
Unsurpassed
Our friendship’s a flower
That will always last.

My friend, I will never let you down
I will put a smile where there was a frown.
When trouble comes, I will be right there
you will find that I truly care.

I will be someone on whom you can depend
Not just for a time, but until the end
I will be strong, when you are weak…
your secrets, I intend to keep…

I’ll be there for the laughter and the tears.
As our friendship continues to grow
through the years.

When we first found each other -
I knew from the very start,
That we would be the best of friends -
Because the bond was in our hearts.

You have always been so very special -
And I hold you in high esteem,
For no matter it be day or night -
You are always there for me it seems.

You brighten my day when I am down -
Your smile just give me a reason,
For in this heart that God has graced -
I have found a friend for all seasons.

Being blessed the way I am -
So embraced by your gentle love,
I know that this bond we share -
Was made in heaven by God above.

You fill my needs so complete -
And continue to challenge me to grow.
We do for each other what needs to be -
That’s what keeps this bond from being old.

It amazes me in so many ways -
the care and love from your generous heart,
For having know you I am a better person -
And from each other we will never part.

Each new day as the sun comes up -
I say a prayer for a very simple reason,
It’s a prayer of thanks to our dear Lord -
That I too am a friend to you . . . for all seasons!

Sharing thoughts and feelings,
Good times and memories, too,
Helps build the kind of friendship
That will last a lifetime through.

Your friendship has been special
for a long,long time to me ~
I cherish everything we’ve done,
and each happy memory.

We’ve laughed together,
dreamed and shared,
Helped each other,
always cared ~

Your friendship has been special,
just as it will always be.

May our friendship last forever;
May I sail upon your sea.
May we go through life together;
May there always be a “we”.

May I be your endless sky;
May you breathe my gentle air.
May you never wonder why
Each time you look for me, I’m there.

May we be for each a smile
Like the warm, life-giving sun;
Yet when we’re in pain awhile,
May our suffering be one.

May we share our special days,
The happiness of one for two;
And if we must go separate ways,
Let my love remain with you.
