CIRCLE OF FRIENDS

Visit The Sick


A visit to the sick is such...A brief
and little thing... And yet, con-
sider all the joy... And good that it can
bring... It means so much in every way
... To one who lies in bed... With only
flowers to observe... And papers to be
read... A visit gives that human touch
... Of one more helping hand... And
all the faithful friendliness... That tries
to understand... Indeed The Lord Him-
self has said... That we are serving Him
... each time we help some lonely soul
... In moments dark or dim... So let
us pay a visit to... Our neighbors in their
pain...And magnify the rainbow bright
... That glorifies the rain.
