Tm ^rcc
Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free I 'm following the path Cod has laid for me.
I took His hand when I heard Him call I turned my back and left it all. I could not stay another day
To laugh, to love, to work or play, Tasks left undone must stay that way I found peace at the end o f the day.
If my parting has left a void Then fill it with remembered joys. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss Ohyes, these things I too will miss. Be not burdened with times o f sorrow, I wishyou the sunshine o f tomorrow, My life's been full, I savored much, Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch. Perhaps my time seemed all too brief D o n 't lengthen it now with undue g rief Lift upyo u r hearts, and share with me, God wanted me NOW, He has set me free.
