The Day God Called You Home

You never said I’m Leaving

You never said goodbye

You were gone before we knew it

And only God knew why

In life we loved you dearly

In death we love you still

In our hears you hold a place

No one could ever fill

A million times we needed you

A million times we cried

If love alone could have saved you

You would have never died

It broke out hearts to lose you

But you didn’t go alone

For part of us went with you

The day God called you home
