Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free, I’m following paths God made for me. I took his hand I heard him call; Then turned, and bid farewell to all; I could not stay another day; To laugh, to love, to sing, to play; Tasks left undone must stay that way; I found my peace… at close of play; And if my parting 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… deep with sorrow; I wish you sunshine of tomorrow; My life’s been full I’ve savoured much Good friends, good times; A loved one’s touch; Perhaps my time seemed all too brief; Don’t lengthen it now with grief; Lift up your hearts and share with me, God wants me now… He set me free.
