Although he was a big and scary man with a loud voice, he was actually a teddy bear inside, that even a birthday song would bring him to tears.
“God Saw You Getting Tired”
God saw you getting tired
And a cure was not to be
So he put His arms around you
And whispered “Come to me.”
With tearful eyes we watched you
As you slowly slipped away
And though we loved you dearly
We couldn’t make you stay.
Your golden heart stopped beating
Your tired hands put to rest
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the best.
