Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free
I’m following the path God laid for me.
I took his hand when I heard him call
I turned my back and left it all I could
not stay another day to laugh, to love,
to work or play. Tasks left undone must
stay that way. I found that place at the
close of day if my parting has left a void
then fill it with remembered joy. A
friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss Ah yes,
these things, I too will miss. Be not burdened
with times of sorrow, I wish you the sunshine
of tomorrow. My life’s been full, I savored
much good friends, good times, a loved one’s touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief, don’t lengthen
it now with undue grief, lift up your head and share
with me God wanted me now.
He set me free.
