Sunday Morning Peace: Friends, a poem by Karen Double

We Need More Friends


When going thru a sticky mess
A friend is better to possess
Than wealth or fame
Your name could claim
We need more friends of godliness.

The sleepless nights arrest your frame
You feel somehow that you're to blame
Feelings of dread won't pass away
And somehow worry fills your day.
We need more friends who stay the same.

A friend who's strong; quick to defend
A broken heart that seams can't mend
Dark the shadows and sorrows deep
The mountains high and all so steep
We need more friends true to the end.

How blest the tho't that Jesus is
Our friend if we are truly his.
And friends on earth do comfort us,
Encourage and help strengthen us.
In prayer, in faith, our vict'ry is.
--Karen Double



Blessings!
