In God's Arms
Oh what a beauty; this innocent child
Quite apparent that through her, the angels had smiled
Though tragic she left us, now the pain too must go
In God's arms, he holds her, and that we do know
She'll know not of pain now, not sorrow nor fear
And through all your memories, she'll always be near
To brighten your day, to comfort your pain
To give you some sunshine, through even the rain
Our prayers are all with her, and our hearts here for you
And as much as you love her, the world will now too
Take solace in knowing the truth in this saying
That somewhere in heaven, with angels she's playing
