God saw you were getting tired, and a cure was not meant to be
So he put his arms around you, and whispered come with me
With tearful eyes your family watched, as they saw you pass away
Although they love you deeply, they could not make you stay
Your golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest
God broke our hearts to prove to them... He only takes the best

(blessings to entire family - Barbara Randolph, Cleveland, Ohio)
