In our life we go through many trials
Things are going well as we walk with a big smile
Our friends will call us by our name
Never thinking it was for there own gain
Laughter can be heard around the block
As the party goes on around the clock
Then trouble times comes and you loose your job
Having no income and your friends become the biggest snob
There talk was if you need anything to let them know
But now you learn it was just to put on a big show
The tears start to flow as your spirit is hurt
And now you see how your friend is nothing but a jerk
You hear the pastor say times will get better
As you think how when you are sitting in the stormy weather
But then God sends a messenger to you
That wants to help because he was in your shoe
So as the day comes to and end
Remember to stop and think who you call a good friend
