Christian Friends

How sweet the loving fellowship
We share with Christian friends;
How deep the bond we have in Christ
With hope that never ends.

It’s like a flowing stream that sings,
A waterfall of grace,
Like air when rain has made it fresh,
A flower’s cheering face.

It brings such joy, renews the soul,
And makes a smiling heart,
Refreshing us through busy days
When we may be apart.

Lord, thank you for the friends you give –
Sweet treasures from above –
For all the joy and fellowship
That spring from Christian love.
