When I was browsing through my mp3 songs, I just realized that I have a song with the title of "Friends". I've lost contact with this song when I moved to KL to further my studies. So, I don't know how I got this song in my mp3. Maybe I accidentally save it? or maybe my friend save into it? who knows.... Okay, back to my topic... It was one of my favourite song back in 1999. Yeah, I know it was like 11 years ago..I remember that I used to sang it during my audition for my school choir because there's none other than this song that I know well and have confident in. This is the song that allowed me to experience the harmonize/melodious songs together with my other teammates although it was some stressful inter-school and national choir competitions but they were the most meaningful and memorable moments. I'm really grateful to God that He gave me all these opportunities to have all these sweet memories.
The one stored in my mp3 sang by Michael Smith but the one i used to listen back then was sang by some group like... Women of Faith?? or Women to women? I don't remember already. All I know is that it really touches my hearts and I do think it will touch your heart too. Because this song has a very meaningful lyric. You can really feel it! Emotionally FEELing it!! i mean it.... I'm so touched when I used to listen to it. It's about friendship. It's about Love. It's about how you treasure the friendship that you have towards one another. Although, we need to let go, but remember Friends Are Forever. Here is the lyric, I really hope it touches your heart..
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 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 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
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 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 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
