Now we must part

And as the angels come and call for you

The pains of grief tugs at my heart

Oh my darling my darling

My heart breaks as you take your long journey
Oh the days will be empty

The nights so long without you my love

And when God calls for you I'm left alone

But we will meet in heaven above

As one in heaven in the family of God
