“Friendship is a priceless gift
That cannot be bought nor sold,
But its value is far greater
Than a mountain made of gold.
For gold is cold & lifeless -
It can neither see nor hear,
In time of trouble its powerless to cheer -
It has no ears to listen, no heart to understand,
It cannot bring you comfort
Or reach out a helping hand.
So when you ask God for a gift,
Be thankful if he sends
Not diamonds, pearls or riches
But the love of real true friends”
