Friends are God's gift


Today in Sunday school we studied about friendship and the importance of having good friends, and being able to be transparent with each other. It made me think about all the friends I have made through out the years. I want to thank each one of my friends for their part in helping make me the person I am today.

Packing up the dreams God planted

In the fertile soil of you

I can't believe the hopes He's granted

Means a chapter of 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


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 with the faith and love God's given

Springing from the hope we know

We will pray the joy you live in

Is the strength that now you show


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


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


To live as friends


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


No a lifetime's not too long

To live as friends.

-Michael W Smith

Greater love has no one than this that he lay down his life for
his friends.
-John 15:13

Dear Lord we want to take the time to thank you for our friends. We pray that you will use us to help make our friends better, give us the right words at the right time that we may be able to help them grow to be more like you want them to be. In Jesus name, Amen
