God's Garden

God looked around his garden
and He found and empty place,
he then looked down to earth
and saw your tired face.
he put his arms around you
and lifted you to rest.
God's garden must be beautiful,
He only takes the best.
he knew you were suffering,
He knew you were in pain,
he knew that you would never
get well on earth again.
and the hills were hard to climb,
so He closed your weary eyelids,
and whispered, Peace be Thine.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
but you didn't go alone,
for part of us went with you,
the day God called you home.
