A Page In Time
A page in time silently turned today
In tears we watched you fade away
Our hearts are broken over you
But when we saw you sleeping
Peacefully free from pain
We could not ask you back
To suffer once again
You may no longer be in our lives
But in our heart you will always be
Bless the memories you left behind
Let them be our keepsakes
Memories that will never tarnish or grow old
Sadly we'll miss you along life's way
So we will grieve a while for you
Then let our grief be comforted
It's only a while that we must part
You were gone before we knew it
Only God know why.
