MY FRIEND FOREVER

by: Doris A. Orth

When shades of night softly gather,
as the daylight hours end-
I feel an overwhelming love
for God, my dearest Friend.

He walks along beside me
in sunshine and in rain.
He laughs with me through happy times,
and takes away the pain-
When illness or some sorrow
tends to tear my world apart.

The love and comfort He puts forth
would melt a hardened heart!
He guides my awkward footstops
along life's rough terrain,
and not one prayer I've said to Him
has ever been in vain!

Oh yes, I count my blessings
at every long day's end,
for I know God will always be
my very dearest Friend!
