GOOD COUNTRY FRIENDS

I love my dear country friends !
I love the hours we spend,
listening to good country songs,
humming along,
like the trees hum along with the wind.

I like the way that we pray,
simple, with well-worn Faith.
Like an old well-worn sweater,
warms us in winter,
they chase the cold away.
Chorus
Oh good country friends !
Down through the years,
I hear you singing sweet songs.
They dry all the tears,
and make the heart lighter,
like good country cider,
and the Lord, Who knows where we belong !

There's a light in a country window,
to guide the weary Home.
There are flowers in country meadows,
to brighten our trip on the Road.
Though the Journey be long,
there's comfort in good country song.

Wherever the Road begins,
whatever the miles it runs;
no matter the dips and the bends,
there's always starlight and sun,
there's always Faith, and good country smiles,
on the face of good country friends !
Chorus
Oh good country friends !
Down through the years,
I hear you singing sweet songs.
They dry all the tears,
and make the heart lighter,
like good country cider,
and the Lord, Who knows where we belong !
