Some Years Ago

On one day some years ago
A special child was born
That cute little smile, those big bright eyes
And so much love was shown

The sadness that you shared,
The happiness that you brought
Could be seen upon your face
In you’re every thought

The way your embrace encircled someone
Is forever felt inside
The child you were and the woman you are
You should never hide

Your kindness and compassion
Are seen and felt each day
That pretty smile, those big bright eyes
There is so much to say

God broke the mold when He made you
I’m so glad you were here
The older we grew, the wiser we became
You have grown so dear

All the time we spent together
Is more special than you can know
It’s in the way we responded to you
That our love was shown

You talked to many and listened to all
A true friend from the start
The emotions you showed, the love you gave
Reflect your tender heart

On one day some years ago
We became part of you
Look down upon us from the heavens
When our hearts are blue

Now we lay your body to rest
As God reclaims your soul
Had you not been a part of us
Our lives would not be whole

Your children grew just as did you
They love you oh so dear
Knowing that God owns our souls
Makes time so short down here

You gave to life two daughters and a son
Who will forever hold you close;
Along with those three and their children too
They will miss you the most

We all give thanks that you were a part of our lives
But now its time to go home
God has called you away from us
To sit beside His throne

On one day some years ago
We all became part of you
Look down upon us from the heavens
When our hearts are blue

Now we lay your body to rest
As God reclaims your soul
Had you not been a part of us
Our lives would not be whole.
