The angels gathered near your bed, so very close to you
For they knew the pain and suffering that you were going through.
I thought about so many things as I held tightly to your hand
Oh, how I wished that you were strong and happy once again.
But your eyes were looking homeward to that place beyond the sky
Where Jesus held His outstretched arms, It was time to say "goodbye"
I struggled with my selfish thoughts for I wanted you to stay
So we could walk and talk again like we did just yesterday
But Jesus knew the answer, and I knew He loved you so
So I gave to you life's greatest gift, the gift of letting go
Now my heart will carry memories of the love you gave to me
Until we meet again in Heaven, where the best is yet to be.
