"We Understand"
Wejust couldn 't understand itjust why God took her away But we stopped and remembered God's word We are only herefor a short stay Life here can be sweet and beautiful, But in Heaven, far sweeter there No heartaches, no burdens, no worries No pains, no toils, no cares We pray that our lives will be Well spent, with love in our hearts For God is so good and so gracious
And loves us all tenderly.
