Come with me
God saw her getting tired
and the cure was not to be.
So he put his arms around her
and whispered "Come with Me."
With tearful hearts
we watched her fade away.
although we loved her dearly,
we could not make her stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
hard working hands to rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us,
He only takes the best.
