elevated AZfFt A golden heart stopped beating,

elevated AZfFt Hard working hands at rest,

elevated AZfFt It broke our hearts to see you go,

elevated AZfFt God only takes the best.

elevated AZfFt They say that memories are golden,

elevated AZfFt Well maybe that is true,

elevated AZfFt But we never wanted memories,

elevated AZfFt We only wanted you,

elevated AZfFt Your life was love and labour,

elevated AZfFt Your love for your family true,

elevated AZfFt You did your best for all of us,

elevated AZfFt We will always remember you.

elevated AZfFt We sat beside your bedside,

elevated AZfFt Our hearts were crushed and sore,

elevated AZfFt We did our duty to the end,

elevated AZfFt ‘Til we could do no more.

elevated AZfFt In tears we watched you sinking,

elevated AZfFt We watched you fade away,

elevated AZfFt And though our hearts were breaking,

elevated AZfFt We know you could not stay.

elevated AZfFt Our lips cannot speak how we love you,

elevated AZfFt Our hearts cannot tell what to say,

elevated AZfFt But God only knows how we miss you,

elevated AZfFt In our heart you will always stay.
