elevated JNYCg A golden heart stopped beating,

elevated JNYCg Hard working hands at rest,

elevated JNYCg It broke our hearts to see you go,

elevated JNYCg God only takes the best.

elevated JNYCg They say that memories are golden,

elevated JNYCg Well maybe that is true,

elevated JNYCg But we never wanted memories,

elevated JNYCg We only wanted you,

elevated JNYCg Your life was love and labour,

elevated JNYCg Your love for your family true,

elevated JNYCg You did your best for all of us,

elevated JNYCg We will always remember you.

elevated JNYCg We sat beside your bedside,

elevated JNYCg Our hearts were crushed and sore,

elevated JNYCg We did our duty to the end,

elevated JNYCg ‘Til we could do no more.

elevated JNYCg In tears we watched you sinking,

elevated JNYCg We watched you fade away,

elevated JNYCg And though our hearts were breaking,

elevated JNYCg We know you could not stay.

elevated JNYCg Our lips cannot speak how we love you,

elevated JNYCg Our hearts cannot tell what to say,

elevated JNYCg But God only knows how we miss you,

elevated JNYCg In our heart you will always stay.
