That’s What Friends Are For

When dark chains drag you down

and the world sits heavy on your faith,

a hug, a few caring words

are worth their weight in gold.

When the devil meddles

and your sins give him cause,

a tender look, a sigh,

will help to dry your tears.

In the depth of your despair,

when you have lost all hope,

the gentle arm around your shoulder

can bring you back to life.
