"From Here to Eternity" is a song recorded by American country music artist Michael Peterson, who co-wrote the song with Robert Ellis Orrall. It was released in September 1997 as the second single from his first album, Michael Peterson, becoming his only number one hit on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) charts that year.

Peterson claims that the single is a "pretty spiritual song" and that he wrote the song "about faith and it came out as a country song".^[1] It is set at a moderate tempo with a vocal range from D4 to A5. The song begins in the key of G major, and transposes a whole step upward to A major halfway through the final chorus.^[2]

Deborah Evans Price, of Billboard magazine reviewed the song favorably, calling it a "well-written ballad, ripe with sweet emotion." She goes on to say that Peterson's vocal "perfectly captures the warmth and feeling in the lyric."^[3]

The music video, directed by Steven Goldmann, was filmed in Point Reyes and west Marin County, California.

"From Here to Eternity" debuted at number 56 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks for the week of September 13, 1997.
