For the life that God begins on earth
Will never cease with time,
Your precious angel was taken in His arms
A perfect place to find.
The love you poured into their heart
Will never, never die,
The seed of beauty that was planted
Blooms forever in the sky.
Not perplexed and lonely
But safely held secure,
Where no hurt or sorrow lingers
Bathed in love forever pure.
A seed that's never planted
Cannot be raised to live
Because in death eternal life begins
That only God can give.
Will grief grow into blessing
For eternal wonder to be known,
With such precious joy in heaven
Only there to be at home.
Because your angel went away
Waiting for you in the sky,
Will you ever be at rest on earth
While you long to go on high.
All the Father's love is ready
For all life to begin anew,
To burst forth into wonderful joy
In together love, forever true.
