Blessed is he who has a guiding friend: To walk with him till life’s rough journey ends; To share his sorrows and to share his joys; ‘Midst this strange world’s noise – this familiar voice Cheers his faint heart when he is feeling low; Stands by him tho’ the world counts him a foe; Laughs with him when his youthful spirit soars; Loves him for what he is with all his flaws; Blessed are these two –who walk hand in hand; The road is less rough – to the promised land.
