I took His hand when I heard Him
call; I turned my back and left it all.
If my parting has left a void;
Then fill it with remembered joy.
My life's been full, I savored much;
Good friends, good times, a loved
one's touch. A friendship shared,
a laugh, a kiss; Ah yes, these things,
I too, will miss. 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.
