My closest friends have moved to heaven They have left this world below To live up there with Christ forever There they never shall grow old The Family chain has now been broken The missing links are safe I know I pray well all be joined together In that city built of gold Daddy was the first to leave us And it grieved my mother so Right away she had to join him They are happy there I know My days on earth will soon be ending For I can see it in Daddy's eyes. The broken links will come together Reuniting one by one
