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 undone must stay that way.
I found that peace at 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 time of sorrow
I wish you sunshine of tomorrow.
My lifes been full, I've 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 hearts and share with me
GOD wanted me now;
He set me free.
