Til We Meet Again

 We watched you suffer, and you had to die

But all we could do was sit close by

You went away, we had to part

God eased your pain, but broke our hearts

God knew you were weary, the hill hard to climb

So he put arms around you and whispered “peace be thine”

The blow was hard, the shock severe

To part with one we loved so dear

Our loss is great, we’ll not complain

But trust in God to meet again

It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone

For part of us went with you, the day God called you home

Our family chain is broken, nothing is the same

But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

Heaven has gained another Angel!
