God saw Wayne was getting tired
When a cure was not to be.
So He wrapped His arms around him
And whispered, “Come to Me”.
In tears we saw him sinking,
We watched him fade away.
Our hearts were truly broken,
Wayne fought so hard to stay.
But when we saw him sleeping
Peacefully and free from pain,
We could not wish him back
To suffer that again.
So keep Your arms around Wayne, Lord,
And give him special care,
Make up for all he suffered,
That seemed to us unfair.
So many times we’ve needed him,
So many times we’ve cried.
If love could have saved Wayne,
He never would have died.
