I miss you.....

A Love so True

God looked around His garden And found an empty place He then looked down upon this Earth And saw your tired face. He put his arms around you And lifted you to rest God’s garden must be beautiful He always takes the best No pen can write No tongue can tell My sad and bitter loss But almighty God above Has helped so well To bear my heavy cross Gone from our lives One so dear But in our hearts Forever near Gone is the face we loved so dear Silent is the face we loved to hear Too far away for sight or speech But not far away for thought to reach We miss you in so many ways We miss things you used to say And when old times we do recall It’s then we miss you most of all Our Lord Jesus knew what was best He took you home for eternal rest We wiped our tears and tried not to be sad And remember the precious times we had Your presence is ever near us Your love remains with us yet You were kind We will never forget. Treasured memories hold you near Silent thought bring many a tear Tears in my eyes I can wipe away But the love in my heart will always stay I make no outward show To what it meant to lose you You had a heart of gold One of the best to behold You were generous, loving and kind These are the memories you left behind Only I will ever know If in one fleeting moment I could see you smile I’d give up everything I have So I could hold your hand For a while We all love you so much We miss you so badly And we won’t ever forget The happy times that we shared Thank you for the years we shared Thank you for the way you cared We loved you then and we love you still Forget you, we never will. There’s a sad but sweet remembrance There’s a memory fond and true And a token of love and affection And a heartache still for you But a certainty of your happiness In God’s glory and Holy Presence Fills our hearts with joy and hope And a longing to meet in Heaven. We speak your name with love and pride We smile with tears we cannot hide We thank you for the years we shared The love you gave, the way you cared. To us your name will ever be The key that unlocks memory Of a dear one gone but cherished yet A beloved face we’ll never forget.
