Friendship is a treasure,
To seek and guard and hold,
Too valuable to measure,
More dear as it grows old!
For no one can retrace it,
If it should go astray,
And nothing can replace it,
So be a friend today!
Friendly words are music,
Ringing through the air,
Friendly smiles are sunshine,
And welcome ev'rywhere!
Friendly deeds are jewels,
Their value who can say?
So find a friend,
And kindness lend,
Oh, be a friend today!

Friendship is a token
To cherish and to tend,
How easily it's broken!
How difficult to mend!
So do not hold it lightly,
Or treat it like a toy,
But keep it burning brightly,
This precious flame of joy!
Friendly words are music,
Ringing through the air,
Friendly smiles are sunshine,
And welcome ev'rywhere!
Friendly deeds are jewels,
Their value who can say?
So find a friend,
And kindness lend,
Oh, be a friend today!

Friendship is a duty,
So let's all do our part,
And share this gift of beauty,
Oh, share it from the heart!
So this is our endeavor,
In song, our pledge we tell:
To make a friend, and ever,
To be a friend as well.
Friendly words are music,
Ringing through the air,
Friendly smiles are sunshine,
And welcome ev'rywhere!
Friendly deeds are jewels,
Their value who can say?
So find a friend,
And kindness lend,
Oh, be a friend today!
