And He found an empty place.
He then looked down upon the earth
And saw your precious 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 that you were suffering.
He knew you were in pain.
He knew you’d never ever
Get well on earth again.
So, He closed your weary eyelids
And whispered, “Peace be thine.”
Then He took you up to Heaven
With hands so gentle and kind.
It broke our hearts to lose you
But you did not go alone,
For part of us went with you
The day God welcomed you home.
