[verse 1]
Each life that thouches ours for good
Reflects thine own great mercy Lord
Thou sendest blessings from above
Thru words and deeds of those who love
[verse 2]
What greater gift dost thou bestow,
What greater goodness can we know
Than Christlike friends, whose gentle ways
Strengthen our faith, enrich our days.
[verse 3]
When such a friend from us departs,
We hold forever in our hearts
A sweet and hallowed memory,
Bringing us nearer, Lord, to thee.
[verse 4]
For worthy friends whose lives proclaim
Devotion to the Savior s name,
Who bless our days with peace and love,
We praise thy goodness, Lord, above.
