The Day God Called You Home
God looked around His garden
and found an empty space.
Then He looked down upon the earth
and saw your tired face.

He put his arms around you,
lifted you to rest.
God’s garden must be beautiful,
for He only takes the best.

He knew that you were suffering,
He knew you were in pain.
He saw the road was getting rough, 
and the hills were hard to climb.

So he closed your weary eyes
and whispered, “Peace be thine”.

It broke our hearts to lose you,
but you did not go alone.
for part of us went with you,
the day God called you home.
