I'm Free
Don~ grieve for me, for now I'm free, I'm following the path God laidfor me. I took his hand when I heard his call,
I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day, To laugh, to love, to work, to play.
I left with my tasks undone. I found that peace at the close ofday.
So, again, my family, I say to you, Don~ grieve for me .... For now l'mfree!
