The day God took you home

A million times

we needed you

A million times we cried,

If love alone

Could have saved you

You never would have died.

In life we loved you dearly;

In death we love you still.

In our hearts you hold a space,

Where no one can ever fill.

It broke our hearts to lose you,

But you didn't go alone

Part of us went with you,

The day God took you home.
