God saw you were getting tired,
And a cure was not to be.
So he put his arms around you,
And whispered, "Come, and go with me."
With tearful eyes we watched you suffer,
And saw you fade away.
Although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
Hard working hands to rest.
God broke our hearts to prove,
He only takes the best.
It's lonesome here without you.
We miss you more each day.
Life doesn't seem the same
Since you have gone away.
When days are sad and lonely,
We seem to hear your whisper,
"Cheer up and carry on."
Each time we see your picture,
You seem to smile and say,
"Don't cry, I'm in God's hands,
We'll meet again someday."
