elevated nRsmQ A golden heart stopped beating,

elevated nRsmQ Hard working hands at rest,

elevated nRsmQ It broke our hearts to see you go,

elevated nRsmQ God only takes the best.

elevated nRsmQ They say that memories are golden,

elevated nRsmQ Well maybe that is true,

elevated nRsmQ But we never wanted memories,

elevated nRsmQ We only wanted you,

elevated nRsmQ Your life was love and labour,

elevated nRsmQ Your love for your family true,

elevated nRsmQ You did your best for all of us,

elevated nRsmQ We will always remember you.

elevated nRsmQ We sat beside your bedside,

elevated nRsmQ Our hearts were crushed and sore,

elevated nRsmQ We did our duty to the end,

elevated nRsmQ ‘Til we could do no more.

elevated nRsmQ In tears we watched you sinking,

elevated nRsmQ We watched you fade away,

elevated nRsmQ And though our hearts were breaking,

elevated nRsmQ We know you could not stay.

elevated nRsmQ Our lips cannot speak how we love you,

elevated nRsmQ Our hearts cannot tell what to say,

elevated nRsmQ But God only knows how we miss you,

elevated nRsmQ In our heart you will always stay.
