God saw her getting tired

And a cure was not to be

So He put His arms around her 

And whispered, "Come with Me."

With tear filled eyes we saw her suffer

And we saw her fade away

Although we loved her dearly

We could not make her stay.

A golden heart stopped beating,

Hard working hands to rest

God broke our hearts to prove to us

He only takes the best.
