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 faith we know,
We will pray the joy you 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.

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.
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.
That a lifetime's not too long to live as friends.
