The Friend Who Just Stands By

Sugar Lopez

This year has brought me a kinder heart, a gentler spirit, and a much humbler way of looking at life with a heart of gratitude for all the blessings I have received. I am truly grateful for all the friendships that have surrounded me.

For as long as I am needed and wanted, I will always be that friend who just stands by, ready and free to give all I can.

When troubles come your soul to try, you love the friend who just stands by.

Perhaps there's nothing they can do, the thing is strictly up to you.

For there are troubles all your own, and paths the soul must tread alone.

Times when love can't smooth the road, Nor friendship lift the heavy load.

But just to feel you have a friend, who will stand by until the end.

Whose sympathy through all endures, whose warm handclasp is always yours.

It helps somehow to pull you through, although there's nothing they can do.

And so with fervent heart we cry, God Bless the friend who just stands by.

Dedicated to those who have surrounded me always with unconditional friendship.
Unconditionally, Sugar Lopez
