Gone Today

Gone today
 Beautiful children and teachers are gone today,
 While we light a candle and remember them as we pray.
 So sweet little faces are so sadly missed,
 Wish we could give them one last kiss.
 Teachers that had a heart of gold,
 Now there in a place,you never grow old.
 A paradise city is where they all are now,
 With angels wings a halo above their crown.
 Missing them so much,as tears flow down everyone's cheeks,
 No words to say,that hardly can speak.
 Heart broken and devastated all around the world,
 Why would someone hurt a little boy or girl?
 Give your heart to all the parents,to all the children they have lost,
 They are now with Jesus,the one that was crucified on the cross.
