“He only takes the best

God saw she was getting tired,
And a cure was not to be,
So he put his arms around you,
And whispered, “Come to me”,
With tearful eyes we watched you pass away,
And saw him fade away,
Although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay,
A golden heart stopped beating,
Hard working hands to rest.

God broke our hearts to prove to us,

He only takes the bestâ€
