God Saw Tired:

God saw you were getting tired and a cure was not meant to be.

So He put His arms around you and whispered “Come with me.”

With tearful eyes we watched you suffer and saw you fade away. Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay.

A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands were laid to rest. God broke our hearts to prove us, He only takes the best!

Its lonesome without you, we miss you more each day. Life doesn’t seems the same same since you’ve gone away.

When days are sad and lonely we seem to hear you whisper, “cheer up and carry on”. Each time we see your picture you seem to simile and say “don’t cry, I’m in Gods Hands, We’ll meet again someday!”
