Forever Friends
You are
my friend.
You have been there for
eons before and will be for eons again.
We were friends in those
royal courts on high.
We were family there,
you and I.
We made a vow to lead
each other home.
That we'd find each
other here in this world below.
We promised we'd seek
the truth and share it with each other.
I was
the fortunate one who found the fullness first.
I've been blessed with
it all my life.
The truth has forged my
way.
It's been an anchor in
the storm.
Yet, even without it,
you've managed to hold it
somewhere locked within
your memory.
Your life -- the way you
live -- proves this to me.
This is
our path, our purpose.
We are interconnected in
our assignment here.
Although you can't see
it, I know what lies ahead.
My friend, one day you
will know the truth that I know.
You will share the
blessings that I have.
You will have a family
of your own to love and care for
who will return your
love a hundred fold.
This is
why we're here.
This is why we've met -
to bring each other home.
We will show each other
the way.
For you see, in showing
you the way, I'll find the path myself.
The world seems dark and
lonely now,
but one day the sun will
shine again.
With hope and faith of a
brighter tomorrow,
We move onward toward
our goal.
Wipe
the sleep from your eyes.
Wake up from the past
that holds you bound.
Come with me on the
greatest journey ever found.
We can make it back, you
and I.
Take my hand, and we'll
follow Him who showed the way.
His message is clear.
His path is true.
Unlock the memories, and
one day we'll
return to live with Him
who brought us together again.
