Broken Chain

We little knew that morning
That God was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly,
In death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you
You did not go alone,
For part of us went with you
The day God called you home.
You left us peaceful memories;
Your love is still our guide;
And though we cannot see you
You are always by our side.
Our family chain is broken,
And nothing seems the same
But as God calls upon us one by one,
The chain will link again
