Whenever I am lonely
Or need a friend nearby
I call on you to be there
With special wings you fly

You comfort me in sorrow
With hopes to ease my pain
Heart of love to calm me
With gentleness of rain

For me you are the treasure
The friend in life I've known
Always there beside me
So grateful for love shown

Like Sparrow of the morning
That comes to greet the day
Your friendship I can count on
You're special in this way

We'll always share the laughter
Sometimes we'll shed some tears
Assured that our tomorrow's
Will last for many years

Through life and every season
Your gentleness is there
The flight of wings forever
They hover like a prayer.
