We watched you suffer;

We heard you sigh; 

But all we could do was just stand by,

When your time came, we suffered too;

For you never deserved

 what you went through.

Looking back with tenderness

Along the path we’ve trod, 

We blessed the many years we had

and  left the rest to God.

If all the world were ours to give,

We would give it all and more

Just to see your smiling face,

Come walking  through the door.
