Sitting here trying to understand
Why God reached down and took her little hand
He decided she had suffered way too long
So He took her where angels sing their song.

Her little heart could only take so much
So the Lord reached down with His gentle touch
He carried her away to a far better place
Now she's with her Maker, face to face.

Her little body suffers no more pain
Side by side with Jesus in His eternal reign
After the tears she wants you to smile
Spreading joy, not sadness, was more her style.

Only five years separated her death and birth
She's enjoying Heaven, we're stuck here on Earth
When the time comes for us to follow her there
She will greet us, healthy, happy, without a care.
