".lf'm jfree"
Don 't grieve for me now ~hat I'm free I'm following the path God has laid you see ,
I took his hand when I heard him call , I tu rned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day To laugh , to love , to work , to play. Task left undone must stay that way. I found that peace at the close of day.
Perhaps my t ime seems p.ll too brief Don 't lengthen it now with undue grief, Lift up your hearts and peace to thee ,
God wanted me now - he set me free .
