God saw you were getting tired,
And a cure was not to be.
So, He put His arms around you,
And whispered, "Come to Me."
If love alone could have saved you,
You never would have died.
A heart of gold stopped beating,
Two twinkling eyes closed to rest.
God broke our hearts to prove
He only took the best.
Remembering you is easy,
We do that every day.
Missing you is the heartache
That never goes away.
We think of you in silence,
We often speak your name.
Now all we have is memories,
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake,
With which we'll never part.
God has you in his keeping,
We have you in our hearts.
