If God should speak to me,
"Ask, my servant, what you crave,"
This is my plea,
This, my soul's wave.

May gatherings never cease,
May comrades gather, heart to heart,
Companions of lasting peace,
Burning like flames, a work of art.

Friendship, my faith, my life's core,
Friendship, my faith, my life's core,
May love bind all, and evermore
Love for all, devotion's door.
Friendship, my faith, my life's core,
Friendship, my faith, my life's core.

Strum the heart's strings, let love resound,
Strum the heart's strings, let love resound,
Where love resides, joy is crowned.
Love has brought light, has found,
Love has brought light, simplicity bound.
Friendship, my faith, my life's core,
Friendship, my faith, my life's core.

If life itself should end,
If friendship's price is paid,
No sorrow to transcend,
For friends, no fear displayed.
Where we stand, our joy will spring,
Where we stand, our joy will sing.
Friendship, my faith, my life's core,
Friendship, my faith, my life's core.

Why does the rose seem forlorn?
Why does the rose seem forlorn?
A victim of a jealous scorn,
Hide not from us, heart that's torn,
Tell us the price of laughter's morn.

If you desire, I'll bring the stars,
And from the heavens, beauty's scars,
Oh, I am your humble servant.
Your friendship kept, a vibrant quest,
Your laughter now, my truest test.
Your laughter now, my truest test.
The friend's smile bright,
The friend's smile bright, youth takes flight,
Friendship is my faith,
Friendship, my faith, my life's core,
Friendship, my faith, my life's core,
Friendship, my faith, my life's core,
Friendship, my faith, my life's core.
