To all the friends I’ve left behind
To let you know, you’re on my mind…
I met you once; instant friends.
I had to leave; friendship ends.
I know I’ll see you face to face
In a different time, a different place
And you will tell me your whole tale
And I’ll treasure every last detail
My whole story, you’ll hear finally
How God has acted oh-so-timely
Somewhere on a golden street
I’ll laugh the moment our eyes meet
As we worship the God who hears
I’ll praise Him again that you are here
Until I see you in that place
Until I see you face to face
I wait and pray and hope to see
That you’ll be there right next to me.

A beautiful poem. So meaningful and a joyful future. Thank you LORD for the hope you give, the encouragement we need. Thank you for each friend who comes into our life. Be blessed, O LORD, and place your blessings upon us; on Anna and her Mom and Dad and brothers.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
