God Saw the Road Was Getting Rough
God saw the road was getting rough, the hills were hard to climb, He gently closed those loving eyes and whispered, "Peace be thine". The weary hours, the days of pain, the sleepless nights are past, the ever-patient, worn-out frame, has found sweet rest at last. God saw that you were getting weary, so He did what He knew best, He came and stood beside you and whispered, "Come and rest". You bid no one a last farewell, not even a good-bye, you were gone before we knew it and only God knows why.
