Michael W. Smith and friends perform a beautiful rendition of his hit song, ‘Friends.' Even though we all have lost loved ones this side of Heaven, we can have peace knowing that we will see them again one day.
‘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'

For this particular song, everyone gathered on stage as Michael played at the piano. The artists all raised their voices to this special tune.
‘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'
