The Meaning of Real Friendship
Friends are such important people
everybody knows some friends of theirs
but to look deep within our hearts
to ask why is real friendship so rare?
At the root, we're all full of self
want to please ourselves first of all
real friendship is about putting others first
love them as yourself, make your own call
Make that first step to get close
make them feel wanted just a smile
showing genuine concern for real depth
for a friend, you'd walk many a mile
Over time prove yourself faithful
be available at any given hour
listen well to whatever their concern
a listening ear brings such power
The best example of this is Jesus
who sacrificed Himself for His friends
a real true friendship is there to see
follow this to find the special blend
