A Closer Friend

There is a Friend that sticks closer than a brother.

By and of His traits, many are inspired!

He was in the beginning with the Father,

The only One that could ever be desired!

Oh taste and see that the Lord is good!

Sweeter than honey, more to be desired is He, than gold.

He loves and cherishes, and washes us with His blood.

Whoever wishes, He invites with outstretched arms into His fold.

 So come unto Him, all who are weary and heavy laden

And He will give you adequate rest.

Take His yoke upon you, and cast upon Him your burden

For He cares for you, and wants you to be, and have the best!
