3We all three use to argue and fightSometimes I got so mad and I couldn't sleep at nightNow your in a hospital bedAnd a lot of things are going through my headEveryone is now trying to get close to youAnd it takes cancer for that them to doI wonder why it has to be youAnd I'm sure you're thinking that tooYou've been in and out of jailAnd you felt like you were in hellWhy did God have to punish youWhen he can choose from killers and robbers tooI know you are string and can fightAnd I'll pray for you every nightI don't know what will happen from day to dayBut all the time I prayOur family is fighting over stupid thingsBut they don't know what God will bringOur family is falling throughAnd there is lots of love missing tooEverytime I look at you it brings tearsRemembering all the good times we've had over the yearsEverytime I look into your eyesI know it'll be hard to say our good-byesEveryone tells me it's going to be alrightBut I can't imagine you not being in my sightI love you with all my heartI don't want this to split us apartWritten by: StacieGod saw you getting tired, And cure was not to beSo he put His arms around you, And whispered "Come with Me",With tearful eyes, We watched you sufferAnd saw you fade away, Although we loved you dearlyWe could not make you stay; A golden heart stopped beatingHard working hands at rest, God broke our hearts to proveHe only takes the best; It's lonesome here without youWe miss you more each day, Life doesn't seem the sameSince you've gone away; When days are sad and lonely And everything goes wrong, We seem to hear you whisper"Cheer up and carry on." Each time we see your pictureYou seem to smile and say "Don't cry, I'm in God's keepingWe'll meet again someday".Love, Mom
