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, and play. Tasks left undone must stay that way; I found the 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 ones touch. Perhaps my time seems all to 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.
