He Only Takes The Best

God saw you getting tired, and a cure was not to be.
So he put his arms around you And whispered, come with me.
With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away.
Although we really loved you, we would 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.
