God's Garden Must Be Beautiful

God’s Garden Must Be Beautiful

God looked around the garden,
and found an empty space.

He looked down upon the Earth,
and saw your tired face.

He put His arms around you, and lifted you to rest.

God’s garden must be beautiful
for He only takes the best.

He knew that you were weary,
and He knew you were in pain.

He knew that you would never,
be well on earth again.

He saw the roads were getting rough,
and the hills were hard to climb.

So He closed your weary eyelids,
and whispered peace be thine.

God saw you were 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 suffer,
and saw you fade away.

Although we loved you dearly,
we could not make you stay.

A golden heart stopped breathing,
hard working hands had to rest;

God broke our hearts to prove to us,

He only takes the best!
