God's Garden

God look around his garden and he found an empty space.

He then looked down upon the Earth and saw her tired face.

He put his arms around her and lifted her to rest.

God's garden must be beautiful, he always takes the best.

He saw the road was getting rough and the hills hard to climb.

So, he closed her weary eyelids and whispered "Peace Be Thine".

It broke our hearts to lose her, but she didn't go along,

For part us went with her, the day GOD called her home.
