								| Friendship |  |  |  
					| Friendship's eyes are full of sunshine, Understanding, trust, and care;
 Friendship's smile brightens your heart;
 It banishes darkness hiding there.
 
 Friendship's touch bolsters courage
 With added strength to banish doubt;
 Friendship always finds your sorrows,
 And one by one, helps cast them out.
 
 Friendship's strength guards you always
 Never wavering, ever true;
 Friendship nurtures the God-given grace
 That dwells, constant, inside of you.
 
 Hold it closely, treasure it dearly,
 Warm and hallowed within your soul;
 When evil seeks to splinter your world
 Friendship's bonds will keep it whole.
