Words:deborah d. smith<br>Music: michael w. smith<br><br>Packing up the dreams God planted<br>In the fertile soil of you<br>Can't believe the hopes he's granted<br>Means a chapter in your life is through<br>But we'll keep you close as always<br>It won't even seem you've gone<br>'cause our hearts in big and small ways<br>Will keep the love that keeps us strong<br><br>Chorus:<br>And friends are friends forever<br>If the lord's the lord of them<br>And a friend will not say never<br>'cause the welcome will not end<br>Though it's hard to let you go<br>In the father's hands we know<br>That a lifetime's not too long to live as friends.<br><br>With the faith and love god's given<br>Springing from the hope we know<br>We will pray the joy you'll live in<br>Is the strength that now you show<br><br>But we'll keep you close as always<br>It won't even seem you've gone<br>'cause our hearts in big and small ways<br>Will keep the love that keeps us strong<br><br>Chorus
