God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be

So, He put his arms around you and whispered, “Come to Me.”

With tearful eyes we watched you and saw you pass away

And although we love you dearly, we could not make you stay.

A Golden heart stopped beating, hardworking hands at rest.

God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.
