To My Friends and Family
By Patience Allison Hartbauer
Thank you...for bringing sunshine
To my gray and gloomy days,
For being there when needed,
And for your caring, loving ways.
Thank you...for encouragement
When I was weary and distraught,
For words of consolation,
and for all the joy you brought.
Thank you...for all your prayers
That were made in my behalf,
For helping to erase my tears
And to replace them with a laugh.
As I faced each tomorrow,
I knew I could depend...
On God...who sent me angels,
It was you...my precious friends.
