God gave her life when she was born
With presence and beauty, she was adorned
She walked in his shadow never to wavier
Strength of steel, God gently gave her
In eternal slumber she does sleep
Waiting for the almighty she will meet
Her mortal body, her essences escapes
Accompanied by cherubs to the pearl gates
Greetings and embraces along her way
By loved ones and friends who passed away
Halleluiah, an angel God's brought forth
To guide those along the righteous course
With no ifs, ands or buts about it
Our guardian angel no doubt about it
As in our hearts she will resonate
Until we are joined at Heaven's gate
Hey no ifs ands or buts about it
problems come from a bottomless pit
Chicken roasts and all
the roots of your fall
My Sullivan needs a work permit
