He only takes the best

God saw she was getting tired
And a cure was not to be
So he put his hands around her
And whispered, come with me

With tear-filled eyed we watched her
Suffer and fade away
Although we loved her deeply
We could not make her stay

A golden heart stopped beating
Hard-working hands put to rest
God broke our hearts to prove to us
HE ONLY TAKES THE BEST.
