God must have known there would be times we'd need a word of cheer;
Someone to praise a triumph or brush away a tear;
He must have known we'd need to share the joy of "little things";
In order to appreciate the happiness life brings;
I think he knew our troubled hearts would sometimes throb with pain;
At trials and misfortunes, or goals we can't attain;
He knew we'd need the comfort of an understanding heart;
To give us the strength and courage to make a fresh, new start;
He knew we'd need companionship, unselfish...lasting...true;
And so God answered the heart's great need with cherished friends like you!
