Andrea . . . Andrea Ruth
 Love of my life,
 my immaculate wife.
 Lift your head to the sky.
 Do not grieve;
 do not cry.
 For it was time for Lucy to fly,
 and since God allowed this,
 we have no reason to ask why
 God reigns over everything,
 but we do know death can sting
 It has no hold on the princess no more
 Oh please, my sweet dear sister, look to the Lord!
 You are beautiful, and wonderfully made
 Death and life both have no mistake
 Jesus grooms his garden,
 or picks a young bud
 Whatever he does,
 he does it in love
 Papa has sent her away,
 in peace and beauty she is to stay
 Join the jubilee,
 stop the fray
 See the hope like
 the hibiscus leaves blooming in May
 My sweet, wonderful, sexy Andrea Ruth
 Do not let trial and grief create you aloof
