The Day God Called You Home

You never said I'm leaving

You never said Goodbye

You were gone before we knew it,

And only God knew why.

A million times we needed you,

A million times we cried

If love alone 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 place,

That no one could ever fill.

It broke our hearts to lose you,

But you didn't go alone

For part of us went with you,

The day God called you home.»(Do not delete this line. It does not print. Text that is to appear on web must be entered before this line)
