FRIENDSHIP,

Copyright. 1921. by Edgar A. Guest)
There is In Friendship balm Tor every ache.
And strength for every burden man must

Courage to serve him through his dark

And understanding for each sad mistake;
Safe shelter when the storms about him
break;
A wealth OF sunshine when his skies are
fair,

As others beg Gods blessings for his sake.
Nor fame nor fortune offers wealth like this
