A Wish

A Wish

It seems as if I was often sad, for certain I was lonely
I missed having a special friend, someone to call my one and only

I searched but friendship I could not find
My life drifted without hope, sadness on my mind

With tears in my eyes, kneeling before God, I made a wish
Show me my mistakes and light up my heart with love no one can extinguish

Soon you came along the way, a kind and special friend
God saw my tears, granted my greatest wish, a friend whose love has no end
