elevated gFfCt A golden heart stopped beating,

elevated gFfCt Hard working hands at rest,

elevated gFfCt It broke our hearts to see you go,

elevated gFfCt God only takes the best.

elevated gFfCt They say that memories are golden,

elevated gFfCt Well maybe that is true,

elevated gFfCt But we never wanted memories,

elevated gFfCt We only wanted you,

elevated gFfCt Your life was love and labour,

elevated gFfCt Your love for your family true,

elevated gFfCt You did your best for all of us,

elevated gFfCt We will always remember you.

elevated gFfCt We sat beside your bedside,

elevated gFfCt Our hearts were crushed and sore,

elevated gFfCt We did our duty to the end,

elevated gFfCt ‘Til we could do no more.

elevated gFfCt In tears we watched you sinking,

elevated gFfCt We watched you fade away,

elevated gFfCt And though our hearts were breaking,

elevated gFfCt We know you could not stay.

elevated gFfCt Our lips cannot speak how we love you,

elevated gFfCt Our hearts cannot tell what to say,

elevated gFfCt But God only knows how we miss you,

elevated gFfCt In our heart you will always stay.
