FAMILY, FAITH AND FRIENDS

Give me Family, Faith and Friends;
They’re all I’ll ever love.
They’re all I’ll crave,
From crib to grave,
And all I’ll bring above. 

Give me Family, Faith and Friends,
Above prosperity,
For wealth untold
And fleeting gold
Do not appeal to me.

Give me Family, Faith and Friends,
Not notoriety.
To have a name,
With worldly fame,
Does not compare, you see.

Give me Family, Faith and Friends;
They’re my priority.
I’ll be well known,
Among my own,
And rich, I’ll surely be.
