Little did we know that morning
God was going to call your name.
In life we loved you so dearly, in death
we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you, you did
not go alone: For part of us went with
you the day God called you home. You
left us peaceful memories, your love is
still our guide;
And though we cannot see you, you
are always at our side. Our family chain
is broken and nothing seems the same;
But as God calls us one by one, the chain
will link again.
We love and miss you always.
