If you’ve ever known the joyful sound
of barks that fill the air~
A sloppy kiss, a friendly paw,
A quiet adoring stare~
If you’ve ever had a special friend
To share a tear or two,
Or maybe just a wagging tail
To lift you when you’re blue~
If you’ve ever felt the wrenching pain
That only death can send,
Then you’ve lost
Not just a dog~
You’ve truly lost a friend.
But God is good and treasures love
And there at Heaven’s gate~
A sloppy kiss, a joyful bark~
You’re precious friend awaits.
