As I sadly watch a door close as very blessed friends prepare to move away, God opened another door tonight providing information about an interesting resource. I am excited about a possible answer to prayer, but am still very sad that my very special friends will be moving away.
Friends
Words: Deborah D. Smith
Music: Michael W. Smith
Packing up the dreams
God planted
In the fertile soil of you
Can't believe the hopes He's
granted
Means a chapter in your life is through
But we'll keep you close
as always
It won't even seem you've gone
'Cause our hearts in big and
small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong
Chorus:
And
friends are friends forever
If the Lord's the Lord of them
And a friend
will not say never
'Cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let
you go
In the Father's hands we know
That a lifetime's not too long to
live as friends.
With the faith and love God's given
Springing from
the hope we know
We will pray the joy you'll live in
Is the strength that
now you show
But we'll keep you close as always
It won't even seem
you've gone
'Cause our hearts in big and small ways
Will keep the love
that keeps us strong
