God saw you getting tired,
And a cure was not to be;
So he put his arms around you,
And whispered, “Come to me”.

Hard working hands to rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us,
He only takes the best.

“The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” Psalm 27:1
