elevated fJlpS A golden heart stopped beating,

elevated fJlpS Hard working hands at rest,

elevated fJlpS It broke our hearts to see you go,

elevated fJlpS God only takes the best.

elevated fJlpS They say that memories are golden,

elevated fJlpS Well maybe that is true,

elevated fJlpS But we never wanted memories,

elevated fJlpS We only wanted you,

elevated fJlpS Your life was love and labour,

elevated fJlpS Your love for your family true,

elevated fJlpS You did your best for all of us,

elevated fJlpS We will always remember you.

elevated fJlpS We sat beside your bedside,

elevated fJlpS Our hearts were crushed and sore,

elevated fJlpS We did our duty to the end,

elevated fJlpS ‘Til we could do no more.

elevated fJlpS In tears we watched you sinking,

elevated fJlpS We watched you fade away,

elevated fJlpS And though our hearts were breaking,

elevated fJlpS We know you could not stay.

elevated fJlpS Our lips cannot speak how we love you,

elevated fJlpS Our hearts cannot tell what to say,

elevated fJlpS But God only knows how we miss you,

elevated fJlpS In our heart you will always stay.
