A Friend Just Like You

The world has many to choose from

But my world has only one of you

You’re a blessing from God to me

The answer to my deepest prayer for a friend

When you ignored me just like everyone else I knew

I still would end up looking to you

If you were never created to share joy

Then heaven would have been missing an angel

When I’m unsure of where to go, I turn to you

You show me the joy of a smile, joy of a laugh

Although at times our journey gets tough,

The strength of God and the daily verse smoothes it out

All the crazy and the good times

Leave an impression on my heart that will never fade

I am still left to vocalize what you’ve written on my soul

A simple thank you is hardly the start of the words

You have always had the right words to lend

Thank you for being such a friend
