Our Friend Who's Gone Away

We really didn't have her long - Our friend whose gone away
 And if things could be different I confess I'd have her stay
With us and bless us with her friendship and her smile
She grew so very dear to us in such a little while.

                     Now we all are lonesome - Each heart has an empty space-
                    That wants to feel her hand again and see her smiling face -
                     And hear her speak so gently, and just be with us each day.
  We miss her and we're grieving for -
Our Friend whose gone away.

                       But I am very thankful -There is peace within my soul -
                    For I know she's with Jesus - I know He has made her whole.
                    And I know too I'll see her when He calls me from this place,
                       And when I go to live with Him - I know I'll see her face.

                     So as I write these words and I remember our Dear Friend.
                       I am thankful that He loaned her to us at the very end.
       How precious are His thoughts toward us -
               How wondrous are His ways -
                       He sent us such a lovely soul to bless and fill our days.
