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
