Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free.
I am 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 peace at close of day.
If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with rememberd joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,
Ah, these things I too will miss.
Be not burdened with time of sorrow,
I wish to you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life's been full, I savored much,
Good friends, good times, a loved one touched.
Perhaps my time seemed too brief,
don't lenghten it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and share with me,
God wanted me now, He set me free.
