THE FRIEND OF GOD

By Max Hill

By MAX HILL
"AND he was called the friend of God"— O name of love benign! For Abraham with God had walked, And knew the love divine. The friend of God, for Abraham Knew how a friend to be To lowly ones beneath his care— Had learned God's will to see. And ev'ry humble child of God May be His friend to-day, If, like the patriarch of old, He turns no soul away. For He who fills eternity, Will yet with man abide, If when He comes and gently knocks, He finds the heart-door wide. Lord, come within my heart to-day, And teach me how to be A friend to all within my reach, As Thou art friend to me.
