elevated jpVX2 A golden heart stopped beating,

elevated jpVX2 Hard working hands at rest,

elevated jpVX2 It broke our hearts to see you go,

elevated jpVX2 God only takes the best.

elevated jpVX2 They say that memories are golden,

elevated jpVX2 Well maybe that is true,

elevated jpVX2 But we never wanted memories,

elevated jpVX2 We only wanted you,

elevated jpVX2 Your life was love and labour,

elevated jpVX2 Your love for your family true,

elevated jpVX2 You did your best for all of us,

elevated jpVX2 We will always remember you.

elevated jpVX2 We sat beside your bedside,

elevated jpVX2 Our hearts were crushed and sore,

elevated jpVX2 We did our duty to the end,

elevated jpVX2 ‘Til we could do no more.

elevated jpVX2 In tears we watched you sinking,

elevated jpVX2 We watched you fade away,

elevated jpVX2 And though our hearts were breaking,

elevated jpVX2 We know you could not stay.

elevated jpVX2 Our lips cannot speak how we love you,

elevated jpVX2 Our hearts cannot tell what to say,

elevated jpVX2 But God only knows how we miss you,

elevated jpVX2 In our heart you will always stay.
