The Day God Called You HomeGod looked around His Garden
And found an empty place.He then looked down upon the earth,
And saw your tired face.He put His arms around you,
And lifted you to rest.God's garden must be beautiful;
He always takes the best.He knew you were suffering,He knew that you would never
Get well on earth again.He saw the road was getting rough,And the hills were hard to climb.So He closed your weary eyelidsAnd whispered, "Peace be thine."
It broke our hearts to lose youBut you didn't go alone.
For part of us went with you,The day God called you home.
