He put his arms around you, And lifted you to rest. His garden must be beautiful, Because he only picks the best. A million times we'll miss you, A million times we'll cry. If love could have saved you, You never would have died. In life we loved you dearly, In death we love you still. In our hearts you hold a special place, No one could ever fill. It broke our hearts to lose you, But you did not go alone, For part of us went with you, The day God took you homw. ********************* For none of us lives for ourselves alone, and none of us dies for ourselves alone. If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that He might be the Lord of both the dead and the living. Romans 14:7-9
