God looked around His garden
and found an empty place.
He then looked down upon the earth
and saw your tired face.
He knew that you were suffering.
He knew that you were in pain.
He knew that you would never
get well on earth again.
He saw the road getting rough
and the hills were hard to climb.
So He closed your weary eyelids
and whispered 'peace is thine.'
He put His arms around you and
He lifted you to rest.
God's garden must be beautiful,
He only takes the best.
If tears could build a stairway,
and heartaches could make a lane,
we'd walk a path to Heaven and bring you
home again.
