God saw he was getting tired And a cure was not to be, So He put His
arms around him, and whispered, "Come with Me." With tearful eyes we
watched him And saw him fade away, Although we loved him dearly, We could
not make him stay. A golden heart stopped beating Hard working hands to
rest, God broke our hearts to prove to us. He only takes the best.
