God Saw Me Getting Weary
So God saw me getting weary So He did what He knew was best He came and whispered, "Come and Rest." There was no time to bid farewell
Not even to say good-bye, I was gone before you knew it
And only God knows why. When God called me to come rest
I didn ' t go alone, For apart of you went with me The day He called me home.
