When we were young, we were friends,
Friends we said, til the very end.
When we were sad, and wanted to cry,
We never needed to ask each other why.

Our friendship always remained,
With love and care, not hurt or shame.
We would laugh until we cried,
We did not give up on life, we continued to try.

I felt your joy, and your pain,
Through good or bad, our friendship remained.
Our friendship just grew stronger,
We grew older,  we were children no longer.

Through the laughter and tears,
We've been like sisters throughout the years.
As children we didn't know,
How much our friendship would grow.

We will still laugh, we will still cry,
Sometimes we'll know not why.
Our friendship still remains,
In our hearts, our blessings are contained.

Thank you my sister in the Lord, thank you my friend,
Our friendship will last, til the very end.
You know I hurt and feel your pain,
For your loved one,your husband, didn't remain.

Know I am still here, know that I care,
Your burdens in life, I will share.
