God looked around his garden
And found an empty place
He then looked down upon the earth
And saw your tired face

He put his arms around you
And lifted you to rest
God's garden must be beautiful
He always takes the best

He saw your road is getting rough
And the hills were hard to climb
So he closed your weary eyes
And whispered, "Peace be Thine"

It broke our hearts to lose you
But you didn't go alone
A part of us went with you
The day God called you home

When we saw you sleeping
So calm and free of pain
We would not wish you back to earth
To suffer once again

It broke our hearts to lose you
But you didn't go alone
A part of us went with you
The day God called you home

You've left us precious memories
Your love will be our guide
You live on through your family
You're always by our side

It broke our hearts to lose you
But you didn't go alone
A part of us went with you
The day God called you home
A part of us went with you
The day God called you home
