God looked around His garden
And He found an empty place.
He then looked down upon,
this earth,
And He saw your tired face.
He put His arms around you
And lifted you to rest.
God's garden most beautiful,
He always takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering,
He knew you you were in pain.
He knew that you would never
Get well on earth again.
He saw that the road was getting rough
And the hills were hard to climb
So He closed your weary eyelids,
And whispered "Peace be thine."
It broke our hearts to lose you,
But you didn't go alone.
For part of us went with you
The day God called you home.
You left us beautiful memories,
Your love is still our guide,
And though we cannot see you,
You are always by our side.
Our family chain is broken,
And nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one,
The chain will link again.
