"Dear friend"!
What worlds of meaning these words hold!
No greater miracle we are told
Than friendship long unbroken.
So much forgiven, much more received.
No human measure yet conceived
Could weigh it all in balance.
The best a cherished friend could share
Is but a hint of God's great care;
His love for man is boundless.
We turn to Him in every need
And know His ear will ever heed
Each call. He truly is
Dear friend!
