"I'm at rest now, so please don't cry ... It will be easier as time goes by; I've done my best to live a good life. For I knew if I did, I could be with Christ. As body lies here, it's only a shell, God has called
me home And my job, I've done well. Now I'm happy and very content for the things I've done wrong, I repent. You know and I know that it's hard on earth. So do not cry at death, but at birth. I have no worry, no more pain for fears. Because I'm with God so dry your tears. I love you all, And this is what I want you all to do - Put God first in your life,
And I'll be seeing you.
