The Going Away Present

He's leaving soon

There's nothing we can do

He's being called back, he's only 19

We pray and plead

But it's his time and God wants him home

The clock is ticking

We are trying to slow it down

We don't want him to go

He's to young, it can't be time

But God says it is

I plead with Him

I beg Him not to take him away

He says it's almost time

We will meet again when our times come to pass

He's being called Home

He's getting his wings soon

He's so young, only 19
