Man's Best Friend



How faithful is my dog, a man’s best friend,
with me he nothing wants but to obey.
If I keep faith with You, Lord, ‘til the end,
Your faithfulness will never go away.

My puppy gently puffs right in my face,
expectant watching eyes so full of hope.
Your’re in my face, Your hot breath full of grace
You hope will tether my soul like a rope.

My mutt looks at me with his loving eyes,
is there a better lover I abide?
Don’t You with Your love infinite take the prize,
Who yearns to be forever by my side?

O Hound of Heaven, Your faith, hope, charity
make You, I hope, in faith best friends with me.
