God saw you getting tired
And a cure was not to be
So He put His arms around you
And whispered "Come with me"
Although we loved you dearly
We could not make you stay
With tearful eyes we watched you,
and saw you pass away.
A golden heart stopped beating
Hard working hands at rest
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the best
It's lonesome here without you
We miss you everyday
And life will never be the same
Since you have gone away
When days are sad and lonely
And everything goes wrong
We seem to hear you 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 keeping
We'll meet again some day."
If tears could build a stairway,
and memories were a lane,
I'd walk right up to heaven,
to bring you home again.
No farewell words were spoken
no time to say goodbye,
You were gone before I knew it,
and only God knows why.
My heart still aches in sadness,
What it meant to lose you,
No one will ever know.
