In Tears
In tears we saw you sinking
And watched you fade away.
Our hearts were broken,
We wanted you to stay.
But when we saw you sleeping,
So peaceful and free from pain.
How could we wish you back with us
To suffer 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.
