Friendship in Christ Jesus
(c) By: Sharon Slaton Howell
One of life's blessings
has just got to be
knowing others who
love Christ Jesus fervently.
To travel along life's path
with those who love the Word,
those who above all else
want to be worthy of the Lord;
this brings to each day
the joy of realizing that
we're not in the fight alone,
but are allied with those growing
in a desire to be of service
where it matters most;
these friends who yearn to be
filled with the Holy Ghost
that our Saviour's work go on
and increase more and more --
that those in need of Him
may be touched to the core.
These special men and women
we may not in person greet.
But we are united nonetheless,
and in thought and heart do meet.
