At God's Request

"At God's Request"
God must have really needed the best
So He looked down and said, "I don't want the rest. I want someone who is a friend to all, someone who won't mind when I come to call."
He looked and He looked, up there and down here
All over for someone to give Him some cheer.
He saw our loved one, and at first He said,"No.
He's too loved and admired; they won't want him to go.
His friends and his family, so close to his heart
Would never be able to see him depart.
But there's something about  him, something special we love
And that's why I want to bring Him above." So God called down
softly so that our loved one could hear, "Just follow my rainbow
and you'll have no fear. No worries, no suffering,no problems or pain.;just eternal happiness, no need to explain." Our loved one
looked above when he heard that call.
He knew what his leaving would do to us all.
But to suffer no longer, he just couldn't wait
He said his good-byes and went through the heavenly gate
We'll miss you, dear loved one, go on to your rest.
Everyone knows that God loved you the best.
