Miss Me, But Let Me Go
Miss Me, But Let Me Go
I have come to the end of the road, and the sun has set for me.
Please don't sit in a gloom filled room -
Why cry for a soul set free?
Miss me a little, but not too long,
And not with y~ur head bowed low.
}\emember the good times we often shared.

Miss-me, but let me go
For this is a journey we all must take and each must go alone.
It's all a part of the Master's Plan
A step on the road to home.
When you feel lonely and sad of heart,
Turn to family and friends we know,
Bury your sorrow by serving the Lord.
Miss me, but let me go
