I
Packing up the dreams God planted
in the fertile soil of youth.
Can't believe the hopes he's granted
means a chapter in your life is through.
but we'll keep you close always
it won't even seen you've gone.
cause our hearts in big and small ways
will keep the love that keeps us strong.
II
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 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 Lords the Lord of them.
And a friend will not say never
cause the welcome will not end.
Tho it's hard to let you go
in the Father's hands we know.
That a lifetimes not too long
to live as friends.
ending
No a lifetimes not too long to live as friends
