Friends
by Michael W Smith
Packing up the dreams God planted
In the fertile soil of myself
Cant believe the hopes He's granted
Means a chapter in my life is through
But I'll keep you close as always
It wont even seem I'm away
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 its hard to let you go
In the Father's hands we know
That a lifetime is not too long to live as friends.
With the faith and love God has given
Springing from the hope we know
I will pray the joy you'll live in
Is the strength that now you show
But I'll keep you close as always
It wont even seem I'm away
cause our hearts in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong

Circle of Friends
by Point of Grace
We were made to love and be loved
But the price this world demands will cost you far too much
I spent so many lonely years just trying to fit in
Now I've found a place in this circle of friends
In a circle of friends we have one Father
In a circle of friends we share this prayer
That every orphaned soul will know
And all will enter in
To the shelter of this circle of friends
If you weep, I will weep with you
If you sing for joy the rest of us will lift our voices too
But no matter what you feel inside theres no need to pretend
Thats the way it is in this circle of friends
In a circle of friends We have one father
In a circle of friends we share this prayer
That will gather together no matter how the highway bends
I will not lose this circle of friends
Among the nations, tribes and tongues we have sisters and brothers
And when we meet in heaven we will recognize each other
With joy so deep and love so sweet
Oh well celebrate these friends
And a life that never ends
In a prayer
That will not be long before
All will enter in
To the shelter of this circle of friends
