God saw you were getting tired And it was not meant to be, So he put his arms around you And whispered, 'come to me'. With tearful eyes we watched you And saw you pass away, Although we loved you dearly We could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating Hard working hands at rest God broke our hearts to prove to us He only takes the best. By Frances and Kathleen CoelhoLA VIDA SIGUE ADELANTE... Cuando yo me vaya, dejenme ir... Tengo muchas cosas que hacer y ver. No se aten a mi por sus lagrimas. Por los hermosos anos que vivimos juntos, demos gracias a Dios.Yo les di mi amor, Ustedes recuerden la alegria que me dieron Les doy gracias a cada uno de ustedes Por el carino que me brindaron, pero ahora tengo que viajar solaSi necesitan llorar, lloren pero Dejen que su fe en Dios Conforte su Pena; Solo nos separaremos un tiempo, Mantengan mi recuerdo en sus corazones.La vida sigue adelante. No estare lejos Si me necesitan, piensn en mi, Aunque no me miren, ni me puedan tocar, Estare entre ustedes y sentiran me calor De mi amor en sus corazones.Cuando ustedes les toque viajar por este camino, Yo los recibire con una sonrisa y les dire Bienvenidos!Author unknown
