The day God called you home

God looked around his garden,
and he found an empty place.
He then looked down upon this 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 that you were suffering,
he knew you were in pain,
he knew you would never
get well on earth again.
So he closed you weary eyelids,
and whispered "Peace be thine".
It broke our hearts to lose you,
but you did not go alone;
for a part of us went with you,
the day God called you home.
