May I go now? Don 't you think the time is right? May I say good-bye to pain-filled days and endless restless night?
I 've lived my life and done my best, an example I tried to be. So can I take that step beyond and see my spiritfree? I did not want to go at first, I fought with all my might!
But something seems to draw me now to a warm and living light. I want to go! I really do! It's difficult to stay,
But I will try as best I can to live just one more day. To give you time to care for me and share your love andfears,
I know you're sad and are afraid because I see your tears. I'll not be far, I promise that, and hope you'll always know,
That my spirit will be close to you wherever you may go. Thank you so much for loving me, you know I loved you, too, That's why it's hard to say good-bye and end this li fe with you. Cherish my memory; as I know you will, and let me hear you say,
Because you care so much for me, you'll let me go today.

St. John 14:1-3 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's
house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
