Prayer For A Friend

Friend of the Changeless Love,

Be with my friend today;

I may not serve her need,

For I am far away;

But Thou canst be with her,

Forever at her side,

To give her strength and peace;

To comfort, guard and guide.

Her friend and mine, to Thee I pray,

Oh, be Thou with my friend today!

God of the Changeless Years,

Be with my friend for aye,

Through years that give with lavish hand

And years that take away;

For Thou art still the same

Though all around be strange,

Thy love and care remain

Though all beside may change;

All else may fail or pass away,

Oh, be Thou with my friend for aye!

1 Samuel 12:23 Moreover as for me, God forbid that I should sin against the LORD in ceasing to pray for you...

Proverbs 17:17 A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.

Numbers 6:24-26 The LORD bless thee, and keep thee: The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.
