elevated JAjlM A golden heart stopped beating,

elevated JAjlM Hard working hands at rest,

elevated JAjlM It broke our hearts to see you go,

elevated JAjlM God only takes the best.

elevated JAjlM They say that memories are golden,

elevated JAjlM Well maybe that is true,

elevated JAjlM But we never wanted memories,

elevated JAjlM We only wanted you,

elevated JAjlM Your life was love and labour,

elevated JAjlM Your love for your family true,

elevated JAjlM You did your best for all of us,

elevated JAjlM We will always remember you.

elevated JAjlM We sat beside your bedside,

elevated JAjlM Our hearts were crushed and sore,

elevated JAjlM We did our duty to the end,

elevated JAjlM ‘Til we could do no more.

elevated JAjlM In tears we watched you sinking,

elevated JAjlM We watched you fade away,

elevated JAjlM And though our hearts were breaking,

elevated JAjlM We know you could not stay.

elevated JAjlM Our lips cannot speak how we love you,

elevated JAjlM Our hearts cannot tell what to say,

elevated JAjlM But God only knows how we miss you,

elevated JAjlM In our heart you will always stay.
