God's Garden

God looked around his garden,and He found an empty place;and then He 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 knew that you were suffering,He knew you were in pain;He knew that you would neverget well on earth again.

He saw the road was getting rough,and the hills were hard to climb;so He closed your weary eyelids,and whispered "Peace be thine."

It broke our hearts to lose you,but you didn't go alone;for part of us went with you,the day God called you home.
